    The warrior chapel was inaugurated in 1957. It commemorates those who fell in the two world wars, but also those of 1870. It also commemorates the crash of a fighter pilot, Claus von Bohlen und Halbach, a son of the Krupp family.
    Located a little deeper and secluded in the forest.

    At this point, the fighter pilot Claus von Bohlen und Halbach, a son of the Krupp family, crashed.
    There is also a memorial plaque for him in the neighboring chapel.
