    Here lime was already burned in the 17th century, which was used as a binder for mortar. As a basic material, the calcareous clay was used, which was abundant in the southern part of the "Tempusbachtales". The loam deposits on the terraces of the Rhine Valley originated during the Ice Age. During this time, the Rhine hardly led water and the permafrost pulverized the calcareous gravel.

      Great viewpoint on the rock ridge. The ascent / descent over the rock ridge always offers great views of the Hunsrück foothills on the Middle Rhine Valley.

        The name says it all: Lime was burned here in the 17th century, which was then used to make mortar. Today you just have a fantastic view from the ledge and can rest on the bench.
