Place of refuge for the Mannebachers and Kümmerner during the Thirty Years' War (1618-1648). The name "Hinkel" comes from the term "Henkel", a handle for a vessel that was used to transport household items and food into the ravine/Gret in case of danger from the approaching Swedish troops. The area around Mannebach only became involved in the war late - around 1630. Source: Text information board of the Mannebach local community
