レオンベルクの絶景の山頂・トップ16

A breezy experience. It sways a bit up there, but it's worth it: the panoramic view is fantastic. I especially like the view across to the Pragsattel and out into the Neckar Valley. Please don't forget to drop in a one-euro donation. It's inexpensive and helps!

The hill was artificially raised in the 1950s, mainly using large amounts of rubble. The new hill that was created was initially called Heiner by the locals and soon became a destination for excursions. After it was overgrown with grass and other vegetation, the new conical hill was given the new nickname Green Heiner because of its more pleasing appearance. It owes its popularity in particular to the good view in clear weather.

Around 550 BC, a man aged around 40 to 50 was buried here with princely pomp. A mighty burial mound, around 6 m high and 60 m in diameter, was built over the burial chamber. It was not until the 1970s that traces of this mighty grave monument were found again. The Baden-Württemberg State Monument Authority carried out excavations from 1978 to 1979. The result was and still is sensational: the burial chamber was found completely unrobbed. The dead man was lying on a bronze couch. The prince wore the typical large gold collar and his dagger as a badge of status. Golden funeral jewelry suggests that the body was laid out in a ceremonial manner. The many fragments of fabrics and other objects are of particular importance. In keeping with his status, his four-wheeled, iron-clad cart with yoke and decorated bridle was placed in the grave. A showpiece of bronzesmithing from the Mediterranean region is the large lion cauldron, which contained over 400 litres of mead.

Incredibly beautiful views, panoramic views! A rubble mountain that should not be forgotten! Easy to reach via the Hasenbergsteige, blue path and Binsenplattenweg through the forest.

From above there is a unique 360-degree all-round view. Many benches, some with tables, are located all over the mountain and invite you to take a break.

The local mountain of the model gliding club IG Heiner e.V. It is a designated model flying area. The information boards must be observed.

Education never hurts or just a good opportunity to take a little break 👍🏼

Most beautiful in summer with sunbathing lawns, benches and a kiosk.
