    Hiking

    At the historic court "Galgenberg" the judgment was enforced after the verdict of the local jury court or the interim court on the Geer. In the case of simple offenses, the defendant was re-admitted to the community after an agreed repentance. In crimes connected with danger to the community, he was banished, expelled on the way to the north, to foreign lands. Serious crimes were executed on the gallows.
