Very nice trail above the former quarry. Good to drive in both directions.

The quarry was run by the Trautmann family. Tw. 1870 u. During the First World War he supplied high-quality material, among other things for the stations along the Reinheimer-Reichelsheimer route. (1886-1887) For the station Michelstadt was also delivered (1870-1871)

Interesting geological site. I had never heard of white sandstone in the Odenwald.

Large, former quarry. So far, I wasn't aware of white sandstone, so here's an interesting corner.
