    Always depressing to see traces of the war. Now so much time has passed and the crater is still a stately size.
    And what does man do... new wars, new bombs. learned nothing.

    A large crater that was created by a bombing in WWII.
    On November 26, 1944, planes dropped 52 bombs at this point.


    The place is only a few meters from the main path in the forest.
