    A pond of heaven is a pond that has no tributary
    Translated by
    The Celtic settlement of the mountain began during the late Hallstatt period.
    Even then, the high plateau was surrounded by a stone wall, which also enclosed the Himmelteich, probably an ancient cistern, on a lower level in the terrain.
