The Kotzenloch geological outcrop impressively showcases the rock layers of the Upper Gipskeuper. Particularly striking are the variously colored mudstones and light gray dolomites exposed by erosion.

The name "Kotzenloch" was originally "Fossenloch" in earlier centuries. In 1827, this name was changed to Kozenloch. The syllable -loch comes from the old terms "lach" or "loche," meaning "district boundary" (here between Feuerbach and Weilimdorf). In 1900, the Feuerbach Beautification Association constructed the descent from the Hornkopf. Since then, these steps have provided the best view of the rock layers of the marl pit.

A crossing point between the centrally located Neuer See and the Pfaffensee. At the dam, there is a gated access point with a view of the lake, marked with the year 1930.

Shortly before the summit, there is a memorial plaque attached directly to the rubble in memory of the victims of the war. The plaque is part of the memorial, which also includes the summit cross and the stepped structure on the summit. The memorial was built in 1957/1958 based on designs by the architect Professor Manfred Pahl. The rubble, which is still clearly visible today, is part of the memorial. At the time, it was deliberately created as clearly recognizable piles of rubble as part of the memorial. They are symbolic of the local history that needs to be researched both scientifically and artistically.

The three-and-a-half hectare red deer enclosure is located right next to the Glemsquelle and corresponds to the natural habitat of the largest wild species in our country. Up to twelve animals find enough space, food and exercise here.

It is impressive that parts of the rubble used to raise the Birkenkopf by 40 m between 1953 and 1957 are also visible. This gives this vantage point a very special atmosphere.

The hill was artificially raised in the 1950s, mainly using large amounts of rubble. The new hill that was created was initially called Heiner by the locals and soon became a destination for excursions. After it was overgrown with grass and other vegetation, the new conical hill was given the new nickname Green Heiner because of its more pleasing appearance. It owes its popularity in particular to the good view in clear weather.
