      Great view from here. And the beautiful hiking trail over the ridge is very worthwhile.

        According to legend, the last followers of Wodan lost their lives here. In the Saxon Wars of Charlemagne (772 to 804), the Saxons who resisted the missionary work were murdered. In the martial law decreed by Charlemagne in 782, the "Capitulatio de partibus Saxoniae", Frankish rule was laid down and the practice of pagan customs was forbidden on pain of death.
