Hiking

Located at the Wahnbach, only the memorial stele by Egbert Broerken reminds of the Reichsarbeitdienstlager that was there for many years. The memorial stele shows a true-to-original miniature of the camp, the relief at the foot of the stele with the inscription reminds of the events that still move many Muchers today. A column of people marching behind a curtain symbolizes this. Broerken has attached three bronze plaques with the names of the 115 internees to the base of the stele.
