ヴィルシュヴァイラーのおすすめランニングルート

Just relax

Seven slate steles arranged in a cross shape offer a panoramic view of the municipalities of Allebach-Wirschweiler-Sensweiler-Langweiler-Kempfeld. In view are the "Wildenburg" to the east, the "Hohenfels" and the "Kirschweiler Fortress" to the southeast, the "Ringkopf" as a Celtic ring wall to the south, the "Erbeskopf" (Erbe's Head) at 816 m to the southwest, and the "Idarwald Ski Area" mountain range to the north. The position of the sun creates a form of time measurement via the shadows cast by the steles. The installation is accessible and makes the monumental energy of millions of years old slate, which was once the seabed, tangible, opening up different perspectives and possibilities for perception.

Here you'll find one of the beautiful loungers with a magnificent view of the landscape. A perfect place for a break.

Seven slate steles are arranged in the shape of a cross. From here, you can see the surrounding villages such as Allenbach, Wirschweiler, and Kempfeld. In various directions, you can spot special landmarks such as Wildenburg Castle, Erbeskopf (the highest mountain in Rhineland-Palatinate), and old fortresses. The shadows cast by the steles change with the sun, thus indicating the time – similar to a sundial. The steles are made of very old slate, which was once the seabed. You can walk among them, touch them, and experience the power and history of the stone.

Great impression in the middle of the field

“Each of these crosses can tell its own story and what motivated people to erect“ their ”cross at this point. (...) These crossroads were erected as visible signs and attract the eyes of many people. The cross is a symbol of life. It stands as a sign of our Christian hope and wants to direct our gaze to Jesus Christ, who overcame death (...). The cross is part of our life, just as it was part of the life of Jesus. So I hope that many people ... visit the crossroads, whether as places of silence and breathing before God, whether as places of congregation meeting, prayer and praise of God. " (Dean Rainald M. Ollig in "Wegekreuze")
