        From the built in the 7th century Celtic ring wall plant still testify wall and ditch remains.
        The Ringwall Ehrenbürg, also called Walberla, is a run off ringwall on the Ehrenbürg at Schlaifhausen, a district of the community Wiesenthau in the district Forchheim in Bavaria.
        Since the early Neolithic period, a settlement of the Ehrenbürg is documented, which can be detected with interruptions to the 5th century AD. At times, the mountain was on the 5th century BC. The mighty fortification of the ring wall Ehrenbürg was a power center for the entire region.
