Hiking

I learned about the deserted village of Giffendorf from a small booklet dating back to the 1970s. The booklet, which describes a hiking trail from the "Brücker Mühle" (Brücker Mill) to "Schloss Plausdorf" (Plausdorf Castle) and back, advises looking into the woods to the right shortly before crossing the B 62 highway between Kirchhain and Niederklein. There, one would supposedly be able to see the old agricultural terraces of the village of Giffendorf.

The village was said to have been located on the left side of the forest path.
