スタットワルドエットリンゲンの天然記念物・トップ11

Historic fountain, beautifully encased in stone, with the year 1892 inscribed on the trough. Unfortunately, it does not provide drinking water, as indicated on the water feature.

Summit cross on the highest point in the Karlsruhe district. This is located at an altitude of 323 meters, not far from the Wettersbach radio tower. The cross, approximately six and a half meters high, was made from a fallen black locust tree from the Karlsruhe Oberwald forest.

This is indeed the highest point in the Karlsruhe city area. However, the wild boar enclosure will no longer exist in 2025.

A beautifully landscaped wildlife enclosure with a summit cross

There were no wild boars to be seen today. But the smell indicated that they were there. Mallards and colorful mandarin ducks swam in the pond.

Simply brilliant! 😄👍 More information about the cross: https://www.karlsruhe.de/stadt-rathaus/aktuelles/meldungen/am-hoechsten-punkt-der-stadt

Who says a summit cross has to be on a high peak ;-) You can also discover a beautifully decorated cross right here at the animal enclosure.

Highest point in Karlsruhe! And then down one of the two trails.
