On a Galgenberg, also called Galgenbühl, Galgenhügel, public executions of convicts took place by the gallows in the Middle Ages. Hundreds of hills or mountains in the German-speaking area have these names. These sites were mostly on the demarcation border of places with their own blood jurisdiction and were often placed on heavily frequented roads and crossings or on hills visible from afar as a deterrent.
