    Hiking

    The Püttchen was then an enclosed spring and cattle trough. Every day the forest farmers in the area drove their pigs, cattle and horses into the forest, where they fed on acorns, beechnuts, wild herbs and tree shoots. The use had consequences: because the cattle ate the new shoots, the forest lacked new blood and became thinner and thinner.

    Please read everything else about the Schweinewald, the Grotenrather Püttchen and much more about the Teverener on this website, it's too much for here.
