    Hiking

    Not far from this point, on May 28, 1945, 41 days before the end of the war, the 33-year-old lieutenant in the reserve, Horst Königer, died.

    As a child, I was here with my father very often.
    He also told me a few things about this soldier.
    Unfortunately, when I was a child, my interest in such incidents was not so strong that I could remember everything.
    A few details, which I do not want to publish here for reasons, are still very well remembered.
