At this location, there are not inexplicable parallel landwehrs from the prince-bishopric era, but the remains of waterlogged railway tracks. A multi-track secret locomotive depot was built here in 1943 by concentration camp prisoners, which was deliberately bombed in 1944. The small ponds at the Dütekolk a few hundred meters further on are flooded bomb craters. More information: noz.de/lokales/osnabrueck/artikel/2099759/im-hoerner-bruch-wurde-um-1943-eine-geheime-zugabstellanlage-installiert (paid article). The trenches extend to Burenkamp and almost to the Wulfter Tower.
