Here you will find the Schlossberg caves, very beautiful

The trail passes this small waterfall and the shelter. Unfortunately, there was trash at the shelter and at this beautiful spot. It's a shame, but that doesn't have to happen! Take your trash with you!

This could have been an "abri", a half-cave, as a shelter for early humans from the Old Stone Age (Paleolithic), the oldest era in human history. It began on our 4.5 billion year old earth around 2 million years ago in East Africa, as evidenced by finds of skulls and bones and primitive tools made of stone and wood. Around 600,000 BC, small groups of Old Stone Age people also appeared in Germany. Based on the greywacke artefacts found here by local historian Albert Westrich, the archaeologist Emil Hofmann determined that they were used as scrapers, striking stones, graters and stingers as early as 600,000-800,000 years ago. His book "Altpaläolithische Fundplätze des Homo erectus heidelbergensis Schmitshausen", published in 2008, depicts the finds.

A real attraction. Take a flashlight with you😀
