Windknollen‬에서 가장 멋진 ‪5‬개의 천연기념물

In the autumn of 1806, world history was made here on these heights northwest of Jena. Directly behind the Landgrave's house lay the Jena-Auerstedt battlefield, the site of the fighting between Prussian troops and Napoleon in October 1806. The Napoleon Stone, which, like the museum in nearby Cospeda, commemorates this event over two hundred years ago, is located here.

Another stop on the Napoleon Trail with a bench at the Napoleon Stone. Here you have a wonderful panoramic view 😎

Ignoring the Prussian ultimatum, Napoleon marched with approximately 160,000 men from Bavaria to Thuringia toward Berlin between October 7 and 13, 1806. On the afternoon of October 13, Napoleon, standing on the Windknollen, spotted the enemy firing positions on the Dornberg and ordered all available troops to take up positions overnight on the Landgrafenberg. The Prussian commanders never expected the French artillery with its heavy cannons to climb the steep mountain.

Even in winter, the dry grass meadows around the Napoleon Stone in Jena are wonderful for hiking. Almost 220 years ago, the battle against the French army – a debacle for the German troops – took place here. It wasn't until 1808 that the united troops succeeded in freeing themselves from the Napoleonic yoke – see more about the Battle of the Nations. In this context, Mr. Blücher's tireless will to win, at the age of 73, deserves special mention.

Bring your worries and troubles and give them to the wind! A beautiful piece of earth that offers wonderful views.
