Deep in the Brander Wald, among the trees and deserted paths, you suddenly stumble upon a rusty T-34 tank. A relic from the Cold War, once set up as a training target on a former military base. Now it stands there, overgrown with moss and time, as if waiting for the next soldier who never came. A piece of history that suddenly appears in the midst of nature.
