Gerd Isenberg

The Horkenstein is a rock weighing around 20 tons, which was in Dahlhausen until 1876 and was then brought to Hattingen. It is believed that it was used in early history either to mark the solstices or as a sacrificial stone for human or animal sacrifices. Today it is located at the intersection of Martin-Luther-Straße and August-Bebel-Straße on the edge of the old town of Hattingen.
