The opening of a new path in the arboretum offers a look back into a dark time in our history - here you can see the last remains of the Feldfugplatz in Eschborn. Another relic from this time is the old airfield in Bonames.

From 1937 to 1945, it served as an air base for the German Luftwaffe, then occupied and used by US troops. Since 1981, it has been used for the reforestation of the Main-Taunus Arboretum (Wikipedia)
