エルヴァイラーの絶景の山頂・トップ4

I thought this was the highest point 😂

It is a memorial to an unpunished murder that occurred deep in the forest around 285 years ago. A large wooden cross stands on the base of the so-called Tirolerstein, located in the heart of the Hunsrück-Hochwald National Park and directly on the border between the Birkenfeld and Trier-Saarburg districts. A seating area in front of it invites you to take a break in the greenery. Since the former chapel in the nearby Neuhütten district of Muhl was converted into the National Park Church a few years ago, and since then, star hikes have been held there, the Tirolerstein has also been a place where believers occasionally hold services.

Unfortunately, you can only find this historic place with luck and a map. The path that comes from below is impassable due to fallen trees. From the picnic area above, you can still walk quite well. There is no sign or information board. What a pity.

A Tyrolean trader was murdered here ages ago and the cross is a reminder of this.

A memorial to a murdered Tyrolean trader.

This is a great way

Nice place to rest at the highest point in Saarland.

Traveling to all 16 peaks in the federal states, it is very interesting to see how differently the states deal with their highest peaks. Perhaps the term "natural" fits quite well here
