    Bronze Age burial mounds
    On the ridge on which you are standing here, a prehistoric path probably ran from the Unterkirnacher Kapf over to the Celtic refuge castle Türnleberg. Dead people were buried along this path in the Bronze Age (1800-800 BC). This indicates that people in the area cultivated the land. Since the later state border here coincided with the border of the state forest "Kaufholz", the stone setters set up particularly large and beautiful boundary stones here. One can assume that the burial mounds, which were even more visible centuries ago, served as boundary markers, because the boundary stones set later were placed directly next to the burial mounds. In 1913 Hermann Rupp examined a burial mound north of the large three-marker from 1673, which separates the boundaries of Schwenningen, Dürrheim and Hochemmingen, and found a bronze dagger and pierced clothing pins in a woman's grave.

      The forest through which you walk exudes a calm and mysticism that I would not have expected here.
