From the photo (billboard) is a brief description of the rampart Heunstein refer. The plant (on the hilltop) is on a close look still easy to identify and is very thought-provoking. A similar facility "castle" existed (today no longer recognizable) on a hilltop above Rittershausen (Dietzhölztal). Interested parties who want to know more about such systems can take a lot from the archive of the University of Münster. Googling always helps too. Can only recommend a visit. Unfortunately, the access and the ascent paths are growing more and more, but with some difficulty to find. Have fun

At the entrance high nettles, but the rest of the way compensated. Be sure to check for ticks afterwards.

those who are interested in ramparts from the time of the late Latene, who still finds many well-preserved ramparts with observation points and special ramparts to underlying water reservoir (pond). The main goal is also well conceivable.
