On the border between Mecklenburg and Brandenburg lies the Wittstock Heath, which fell to Wittstock in 1802 after more than 400 years of border disputes. The Daberturm with its outbuildings was formerly part of the Landwehr and border station.

Today, the experience exhibition "Wardens of the Heath" can be visited here.

The geological formation of the area is explained using minerals and fossils from the region. A large number of exhibits invite you to touch different materials, to sniff the herbal pharmacy and to listen to the sounds and noises from the forest and heath.

In the former guard room, the history of the heath is presented as an audio book - with legends and stories from the world of smugglers. Open from April to October.

The Daberturm is the starting point for several running and hiking trails in the heath.

Under the motto "learning to play", the animal and plant world of the forest and the history of the "smuggling herd" are presented on an area of around 150 square meters.
Numerous interactive objects and room for events offer visitors the opportunity to get closer to the Wittstocker Heide.
Idyllically located on the Daberbach, located on the grounds of the Forsthofes a herbal and erratic garden and a bush oven.
