    Tips

    The foundation stone was laid in 1934 by the National Socialist Reich leadership, they wanted to build a national assembly and memorial site here.

    The historical background for this was the tradition that 4,500 Saxons were killed by the Frankish king Karl (who later called himself Charlemagne). Since there are no reliable records, there are legends about the so-called “Verden Blood Court.” The buildings and grounds at that time were used for training courses for the SS and the Hitler Youth, and later refugees were housed.

    The area has been used by the Protestant youth since 1950.

    There is space for up to 126 guests who can be accommodated in four guest houses and two apartments.

    There are information boards that provide detailed information about the past and present.
