The information boards provide excellent information about the former small fort "Auf der Windlücke". The foundation walls and a model provide information about the size and design of the defense structure.

This is the only small fort that can be seen and experienced along the western Limes hiking trail HW 29. Be sure to compare the model reconstruction with the dimensions of the fort. How many buildings are supposed to have been there in a very small space, I found very remarkable and interesting. One of my favorites on the HW29
