Remains of the gallows in the Steinheim High Court. The two pillars are around 5 meters high, and the path leads through the middle (almost inappropriately). Its existence has been around since the 14th century. Reportedly, the last execution was in the 18th century 🤭

you don't see that very often. A terrible place when it was still in use.

This is where "criminals" were once executed. A bench next to the gallows offers a place for a short rest.
