    Tips

    This "Lost Place" in 1971 is located in the forest of Hundsangen - there is no "official" way there, but it can be easily reached via a dirt road between the fields - by MTB or on foot.

    Here stands on a cairn a cross with 12 high basalt columns outside - the "12 Aposteln im Gossen" (vernacular). The dog singers speak of the "lost twelve apostles", younger generations hardly know anything about it.

    The place is unfortunately not cherished and maintained, therefore pretty overgrown. From the edge of the forest you have to look for a loophole (on foot), then you are almost directly in front of the cairn with a cross.
