    Interesting historical site in the forest

      wolf pit:
      A sandstone pit where wolves, lured by bait, were trapped.
      This was a protective measure to keep wolves away from the domestic animals (cows, sheep, goats, pigs), some of which were kept freely.
      The last wolf in the Palatinate was killed in 1908.

        Has it ever been used to catch wolves? The thing is waist deep at most. But it's an interesting place for a break at a crossroads with lots of options.
