Mystical now not grade (but had just nothing to Kiffen) but the landscape looks great :)

Between 1995 and 1999, a total of 13 wind turbines were built on the Vollrather Höhe. The wind farm consisted of four Tacke TW-600 turbines with a nominal output of 600 kW and nine AN Bonus turbines with a nominal output of 1000 kW. The wind farm's annual production was around 20.2 million kWh.
In 2013, another Enercon E-82 system was built for NEW AG. A few months later, a Vestas V90 system followed, for which a tack system was dismantled. In autumn 2016, the remaining old wind turbines from the 1990s were dismantled as part of repowering and replaced by five new General Electric 2.5-120 turbines, each with an output of 2.5 megawatts. This means that there are currently only seven wind turbines left on the Vollrather Höhe. Through repowering, the wind farm is expected to produce around three times as much electricity in the future as before.

At this point of the forest edge one looks in the afternoon in the backlight on a nearby wind turbine. The dark threatening silhouette of the windmill and the loud rotor noise give the place something mystical.
