Hiking
These cheerful figures always consist of three elements: a green turf, a headdress made of herbs and a shield with a wisdom on it. With this trademark Altenau won a city award in the 1990s. At that time the funny fellows stood in front of almost every house and had individually designed elements in addition to the three basic elements. There were footballers, musicians, craftsmen ... Today only a few are standing at the entrance to the town.
