When it was discovered, the princely burial mound of Hochdorf had been reduced to a mere mound of ground. After its reconstruction in 1987, it once again forms an imposing landmark with a diameter of 60 m, a height of 6 m, and a volume of 7,000 m³ of earth and 280 tons of stone. The mound is freely accessible and is half a kilometer from the museum. From the top, you have a magnificent view 👀 of the surrounding landscape 👍🏼

From this location you have a great panoramic view. In the evening, when the lights of the surrounding towns come on, a special atmosphere is created.

In 1885, Kaiser Wilhelm I is said to have observed one of his troops’ exercises at this location. So be it. 😉

Around 550 BC, a man aged around 40 to 50 was buried here with princely pomp. A mighty burial mound, around 6 m high and 60 m in diameter, was built over the burial chamber. It was not until the 1970s that traces of this mighty grave monument were found again. The Baden-Württemberg State Monument Authority carried out excavations from 1978 to 1979. The result was and still is sensational: the burial chamber was found completely unrobbed. The dead man was lying on a bronze couch. The prince wore the typical large gold collar and his dagger as a badge of status. Golden funeral jewelry suggests that the body was laid out in a ceremonial manner. The many fragments of fabrics and other objects are of particular importance. In keeping with his status, his four-wheeled, iron-clad cart with yoke and decorated bridle was placed in the grave. A showpiece of bronzesmithing from the Mediterranean region is the large lion cauldron, which contained over 400 litres of mead.

From this spot (at the time height 346), where the so-called "Kaiserstein" now stands, the 88-year-old Kaiser Wilhelm I and his entourage observed the maneuvers in the surrounding fields on September 22, 1885. On the front there was an embedded relief image of the Kaiser. The monument was surrounded by trees, including a Kaiser Wilhelm linden tree. The monument itself was covered with ferns, moss, ivy and cornflowers.

Education never hurts or just a good opportunity to take a little break 👍🏼
