The gauge mast in the pasture, about 130 m away, is intended to show how high the moor was there before peat was mined between 1840 and 1920 (mostly by hand). The land was then made available for agriculture.

An interesting highlight. It's nice that with Komoot you can find out before or after what you've actually seen or will see.
So here it is shown how high the bog was. Very exciting!
