Tips
The sculpture of the "Wooden Man" in the forest above Rösberg was created in the mid-1980s by a local carver named Cader, who also made nativity figurines, for example. With this work he also wanted (according to tradition) to create a figurative counterpart to the - incomparably more famous - "Iron Man" in the Kottenforst.
