The Guardian III is a figure almost four meters high that vaguely resembles a bird with stilt-like legs. Thanks to its size and location, the “Wächter” has a wonderful panoramic view of everything that belongs to nature. Look around the Guardian's location and enjoy the view from there.

The archaic-looking sculptures are guardians of the landscape here at X3. All three are located about 700m apart between Dreikönigsstein and Metzebacher Höhe, in places that offer a clear view of the country. The four meter tall bird-like creatures watch over the plants, people and animals of the landscape with a foresighted view.
