그륀하인-바이어펠트‬에서 가장 멋진 ‪20‬개의 천연기념물

Very impressive basalt columns 🌋, arranged like organ pipes 😃. They are best seen from the large clearing by the ski jump 📷.

The basalt path along the organ pipes includes 15 educational panels that vividly illustrate the geological situation of the Scheibenberg, the flora and fauna of the surrounding area, and interesting facts about the history of the mountain and the towns of Schlettau and Scheibenberg.

a great corner, always worth a trip

Mining has been taking place on the Scheibenberg since 1522, initially in search of silver. Later, clay was mined and used to make pots and ovens. From 1914, the Krebs company and two municipal companies in the towns of Scheibenberg and Schlettau operated extensive quarries and sand pits. Long crowbars were used to drill holes up to three meters deep into the clay and sand beneath the basalt columns. Dynamite was then used to blast the bases of the "organ pipes" and cause them to collapse. The basalt blocks were further broken down by blasting them again and finally transported away by cable car.

Simply beautiful ❤️
