Old Germanic sacrificial and rampart site (place of execution)
In 1901, the Beilngries Beautification Association erected an obelisk, a monument, from the remains on the mountain promontory. There you can read the following saying:
There was an ancient Germanic sacrificial and rampart site on this mountain promontory. Wodansburg, later called Judenburg. The Beilngries Beautification Association built this monument from the remains in the year of salvation in 1901.
The place is also impressive because there are a large number of water veins, each of which is signposted.
