윙겐 안 데어 모더‬에서 가장 멋진 ‪16‬개의 천연기념물

Although the few remaining ruins of this structure are called a castle, it appears that the site was first used as a Roman temple and then as a Christian church. Nearby are superb rock formations typical of the Northern Vosges Mountains.

Accessible from various directions and/or accessible as a circular walk. The walk up the mountain is quite long.

At this spot, in the forest northeast of Lviv, the trees give way slightly, creating a clearing where, at an altitude of 420 meters, stands the small sacred monument known as the "Croix Saint-Hubert." A low stone wall and a wooden fence create a small "sacred precinct," at the center of which is the well-preserved cross. At the very bottom of the lower section is the well-known scene from the Life of Hubertus, featuring a stag with a cross between its antlers. Above it, at the very bottom, are reliefs of two figures, the one on the left identified as a monk with his tonsure and habit; between the two images, the year 1786. Above this, rises the actual cross, which also bears the body of the crucified Christ.

Very beautiful places in the calm of the forest

The remains are not the ruins of a small castle, as the popular name might suggest, but rather the remains of a Roman or Gallo-Roman sanctuary from the 2nd century, with a second phase of use in the 4th century. It may have later been used as a Christian church. In Curt Mündel's guide to the Vosges Mountains (1911 edition), the ruins are referred to as "Meisenbacher Schlössel," and the rock below as "Ochsenstall" (Oxen Stable), probably because the rock overhang was formerly used as a shelter for cattle.

The Ochsenstall Rock offers an exhilarating mountain biking experience with its rugged terrain and steep slopes. The highlight of your ride is the Ochsenstall Cave, an intriguing little cavern located beneath the rock formations. This cave, carved out by natural forces, offers a moment of exploration and a unique view of the surrounding landscape. It is the perfect place to take a break.

A beautiful place. What I don't understand: How can you be so ignorant and put a pile of shit garnished with lots of speed right behind the rocks 😡😡

Very beautiful place, you can take shelter there in case of bad weather and eat a bite on the huge Vosges sandstone table. The hike all around is nice and easy. The trails are almost all clear.
