According to the information panel: "At this spot, right next to the Scheuweg, legend has it that about 200 years ago, the maiden Beate was murdered on the road from Kössern to Seidewitz. She was returning from a christening in Kössern, accompanied by a family friend, but was ambushed here by her jealous fiancé and ultimately killed. Even after more than 200 years, her grave refuses to decay, seemingly out of sheer innocence."

According to the information panel: "On the large hill now occupied by houses, a settlement whose name is no longer known stood until the Thirty Years' War (1618-1648). The plague devastated the village. Presumably, the remains of the foundation walls are those of a small church, whose floor plan suggests a larger building for a settlement of that time. Today, this former forest chapel is used for quiet contemplation in nature, for small devotional services, and frequently for the Ascension Day service of the parishes of Leipnitz, Dürrweitzschen, Sitten, Polditz, Bockelwitz, and Zschoppach..."

Large free parking area for hikers with an overview map of the Thümmlitz nature trail

A great circular hiking trail around Lake Thümmlitz is signposted here.

Thûmmlitzsee, a beautiful hiking destination

Free parking, good hiking trails from there

That's how it is with highlights that aren't really highlights: old becomes new.

The route is really beautiful - large parts of it are "pure nature" - and have nice signposts.
