    The Steinallee leads from the north-east to the south-west
    At the bottom is a large menhir that broke a long time ago and was put up again in 2007. The stones are from the Bronze Age, or even from the Neolithic Age

        MYSTERIOUS SIGNS OF THE TIMES

        Steinallee Meisenhald

        The path running from north-east to south-west is lined with more than 4o stones; at the lower end there are remains of a kind of wall. There is a menhir that fell and broke a very long time ago and was re-erected in 2007. The processing of the stones points to the Bronze Age or even the Neolithic Age. The path axis shows a very specific astronomical event that occurs only once in a 19-year cycle: the full moon reaches its northernmost rising point in the northeast and its southernmost setting point in the southwest. The avenue could therefore have been a terrestrial calendar for predicting eclipses.
