    The High Court at Lechlumer Holz served as the main place of jurisdiction for the Principality of Braunschweig-Wolfenbüttel from the 16th century to mid-1759. The facility is located on a hilltop (Galgenberg) above the Oker on the northwestern edge of Lechlumer Holzes, a small piece of forest on the old army road that ran from Wolfenbüttel via Stöckheim and Melverode to Braunschweig. The remains of the execution site can still be seen today.

    A memorial stone and an information panel are worth the visit.
