The Oberberg fissure in the Weser Uplands is a narrow, natural crevice in the limestone of the Oberberg mountain and is one of the region's geological features. It lies well hidden on a steep slope and resembles a deep, inaccessible crack in the rock less than a cave. Due to its narrow structure, slippery limestone walls, and partially unstable floor, hiking guides advise against entering the fissure. It is precisely this mysterious yet difficult-to-access appearance that makes it such a fascinating place, best viewed from a distance.

The Springsteine in the Weserbergland region are a striking rock formation of ancient sandstone and limestone, rising jagged and bizarre from the wooded ridge near Deckbergen. Between narrow crevices, small caves, and steep rock outcrops, an impressive piece of geological history is revealed, providing a habitat for bats, among other creatures. The name "Springsteine" derives from their once prominent location, visible from afar, when they stood like prominent landmarks above the valley. Today, narrow paths wind through them, making the Springsteine a particularly attractive destination for hikers who appreciate geological features, tranquility, and unusual natural formations.

The Osterburg consisted of two neighbouring, independent castles on two hills, which were separated by a moat. They were protected from the outside by earthen ramparts and a deep moat. The remains of a ring wall are believed to be in the ramparts, but archaeological investigations can only provide information about this. The northern and smaller castle hill appears to be of more recent date. The oval structure has a diameter of around 40 × 50 m and a height of around 3 m. In the direction of the larger castle hill to the south there was an area of a small outer bailey. The main castle has an area of around 50 × 70 m and a height of up to 7 m. On it, a round rubble mound with stone remains indicates the former presence of a round tower made of rubble stone. Soil anomalies and depressions on the castle hills indicate collapsed cellars of earlier buildings, which are to be expected here as commercial and residential buildings. The holes may also have been caused in part by illegal excavations, which have already caused major damage to the remains of the castle complex. The distinctive soil shapes of the complex are still clearly visible in the area today, especially due to the surrounding ring moat in the shape of a figure of eight. At the castle site there is now an information board with an explanatory text that shows the complex in plan and as an attempt at reconstruction. The history of Osterburg is largely unknown. It was first mentioned in documents in 1121. Source: https://de.wikipedia.org/wiki/Osterburg_(Deckbergen)

The Springsteine owe their name to the fact that in the past - when the mountains were not yet so densely forested - they could be seen "jumping out" from the valley of the cliffs on the slope.

Impressive little cave a little off the beaten track. You have to be careful not to walk past it. But when you stand in front of it, it's impressive to see such a cave and how dark it is inside. Anyone who likes natural phenomena will definitely enjoy this sight. :)
