    Hiking

    The benches used to be a simple but nevertheless very useful facility, especially for rural women. Baskets from the head, butts and reefs from the back, sacks and cans from the hands could be placed at the appropriate height and picked up again comfortably after resting. The Steinerne Gruhen are small monuments and are now under monument protection.

    Hiking

    There are around 60 Gruhen in the Ludwigsburg district. About half of them are still largely in their original state. In the past, when loads were still being carried, they were used as a convenient place to rest when resting. There are many terms for this: Ruhestein, Ruhbank, Grubstock, Gruhe, Gruhbank, Krugstatt or Gruegstatt as well as Raststein.

    Hiking

    This spacious rest area is located near the convergence of the three districts Botenheim-Bönnigheim-Meimsheim.
    Right next to it is a "Gruobbank", which used to be used by women carrying wine baskets for a break and short storage of the wine baskets. Several women often met and the latest gossip was exchanged.
