ハウネタールでの周辺の簡単なハイキングとウォーキング

The effort of the climb, whether on foot or by bike, is rewarded by the magnificent view. The ruins of the summit castle lie on the summit of the 524 m high Stoppelsberg in the Kuppenrhön, the remnant of a volcanic vent formed in the Miocene. The keep of Hauneck Castle is founded on hexagonal basalt columns that formed when the lava cooled; they are exposed at the base of the keep. History of Hauneck Castle: Built by the Knights of Haun, around the 14th century/Ancestral seat in Burghaun 1402 First documented mention/Conquest and partial destruction by the Hessian Landgrave Hermann 1409 The Landgrave finally acquires the castle through a purchase agreement with Johann and Heinrich Haun. 1469 Second destruction by the Lords of Buchenau 1483 Reconstruction as the seat of a Hessian bailiff by the Landgrave of Hesse-Marburg 1660 Abandonment of the official residence and relocation to Holzheim Progressive deterioration followed. The castle ruins had to be closed on August 1, 1981, due to the danger of collapse. On May 20, 1982, after extensive renovations, the now secured castle ruins with a walkable keep were reopened. Since then, the ruins have been accessible again and offer a beautiful vantage point. Source: www.Wikipedia

A beautiful place steeped in history. The information panel tells the legend surrounding this place.

The so-called Jewish oak near Niederaula-Kerspenhausen brings back memories of the Rhina Jews in a fictional diary. Their fate from the first settlement to the violent end in 1939 is told in a very personal and reader-friendly way. One learns about the peaceful coexistence of the Jewish and Christian villagers, but also about envy, resentment, hatred and persecution. The diary format also made it possible to express individual feelings and value judgments (source: https://www.zum.de/buch/index.php?controller=front&action=view&id=199 (as of December 26, 2024).
