    It was already 40 years ago that five firefighters lost their lives in the forest near Meinersen in the biggest fire in Germany!
    Every year on August 10th, the fire brigades commemorate their deceased comrades. For this they lay a wreath at the memorial in the forest near Meinersen!
    So the memorial is always very well maintained at the end of August ;-)

    A memorial known beyond the district of Gifhorn, which commemorates above all the firefighters who died in the fire!
    The memorial is very well-kept and every year firefighters meet and lay flowers there.
    The way is to cope with a normal bike. A bank invites you to take a break and a table reveals interesting information!

    The ashes were still going down in the district of Celle. My mother reported ash dust on linen on a leash.
