    Hiking

    A lot of things used to take place in the open air, even the judiciary.

    The local court used to sit in the former valley, the Schöffenschlucht, which referred cases to the higher court on the Geers if necessary.
    During World War II the valley was used to build a bunker. After the war the gorge was filled in.
    Only a small ditch can be seen today.
