    Tips

    The place is also relevant in terms of cultural history. The "Adlerhorst" lies between Oberlemp and Bechlingen at a height of 435 m. There are several traces of settlement on its ridge. Finds of broken fragments (to be seen in the Museum of the High School in Herborn) prove that on the heights of the "Adlerhorst" in the Latène period around 500 BC. BC people lived.
    It is assumed that a Celtic place of worship must have been at the highest point, where large heaps of stones can still be seen today. Also about 80 m further to the east are clear remnants of a ring wall fortified with stones, which has lasted for thousands of years.
