    Here you can find the traces of a sea in the Waldkappeler mountains.
    Here there is a Zechstein formation measuring approx. 4.50 m wide and an integrated hollow measuring approx. 2 m high and approx. 2.80 m wide. The Zechstein is made up of marine deposits that were formed in Europe by the so-called Zechstein Sea. This Zechstein Sea stretched across large parts of Europe.

      The name KNOTS-KELLER has been a mystery for a long time. Children used to be told that Santa Claus lived here.
      A closer look reveals the meaning of the name:
      Because the word “knots” means
      also means "growth". Growth in the form of a root in the limestone rock. It is difficult to guess how old this root is.
      Knots, together with cave (= cellar) gives the name KNOTS-KELLER

        A great view from the tower. You can almost look up to Potsdam Platz 🤔🙄
