    The background to the beautiful and group-friendly rest area "Fillerkuhle" may not be quite as appetizing for many animal lovers. Because the peeling of the fur from dead animals was called "filling". Hence the name of the rest area. The name goes back to a cave for animal carcasses that was formerly located at the rear of the hut. Here the carcasses of dead cows, horses and other animals from the animal husbandry were cut up, boiled and refined into glue or curd soap. The leftovers were then processed into animal feed.

      Covered cabin for the rest of 2008 in the immediate vicinity of a long-used Fillerkuhle.
      On the accompanying sign - in the photos - the history and meaning of the Fillerkuhle is appreciated.

            A nice place for a break with a historical background. In the past, dead cattle were cut up here for further processing to make fur, leather and soap, etc. (see photo)
