In former times a hunting lodge was built here, which was built for the better hunting practice of the hunters. The client was Palatine Casismir. In later times, the hunting lodge was used by the forest administration, but after 1826 it was demolished. There has always been a small settlement here, as a reminder of the settlement area is this Ritterstein No. 120, which is maintained by the Palatinate Forest Association. Today stands here the Nibelungenhaus.
