Hiking

For several centuries, the Horsdorf residents have been called "Federbloser" (feather blowers). The exact origin of the name is unknown, but it goes back to the technique of slitting feathers, which was used to create a kind of fake down. Until the mid-20th century, the women of the village would gather and cut the hard quills from the feathers. Since the remaining feathers were then blown off the table, this may be where the name comes from.
