슈타프스테트‬에서 가장 멋진 ‪20‬개의 천연기념물

From the "Wildes Moor" viewing hill, a sweeping view opens up over the almost treeless raised moor and green landscape, interspersed with renaturalized bodies of water. The atmosphere is particularly mystical in the morning with ground mist and the rising sun. A circular trail allows you to experience the unique flora and fauna: patches of cotton grass and sphagnum moss, bracken, and moor grass alternate, providing habitat for approximately 50 breeding bird species and various dragonflies and grasshoppers.

This is the former home of the shell souvenir manufacturer D. Hauschild. In 1901, he had his house modernized and in the process decorated the windows, doors and corners of the house with shells that he bought in the Hamburg harbor and made into souvenirs. In front of his house there is a shell stone that he bought. He had it transported to his house from a bent wall near the Vaasbüttel brickworks. https://www.hohenwestedt.de/die-gemeinde/sehenswertes

Geographical center of Schleswig-Holstein: On May 18, 2001, the mayor of Nortorf, Hans-Helmut Köppe, unveiled the center, which is now marked with a millstone bearing the inscription "The center of Schleswig-Holstein". Next to the millstone are two pillars bearing the coat of arms of Nortorf and Schleswig-Holstein.

In 1901, the shell souvenir maker Detlev Hauschildt had the house modernized in the style of the time and the windows, doors and corners decorated with shells that he bought in the port of Hamburg and processed into souvenirs. This is why the house is popularly known as the "shell house". Hans-Günter Kiene later moved in here with his tax office. As early as January 1892, Detlev Hauschildt had the so-called shell stone, which originally stood on a small elevation in a bent wall near the Vaasbüttel brickworks, set up in front of his "shell house". He bought it for six marks and had it brought to its current location on a sleigh pulled by eight horses; the transport was much more expensive than the purchase, namely 330.00 marks. The shell stone is a granite block that is two meters high and has a circumference of 5.20m. It tapers towards the top and has many small, bowl-shaped depressions on its surface. It is also a prehistoric sacrificial stone with man-made depressions to collect the blood of the sacrificial animals. https://www.hohenwestedt.de/die-gemeinde/sehenswertes

This is where the geographical center of SH is located... there are rest areas and bicycle parking spaces.

Nice and quiet place, good place to take a break

In the triangle of Osterrönfeld-Bokelholm-Jevenstedt is the conservation area "Wildes Moor". Covering an area of around 500 hectares, the landscape enchants with its extensive moor and grassland areas. In the course of the last 40 years, around 200 hectares of the original moor area have been renatured. From the lookout you have a wide view over the almost tree-free area. The Wild Moor is one of the raised bogs. Birds and smooth snakes find a varied home in the unique Wilder Moor. A circular route leads through this wonderful Wild Moor. Especially in the early morning hours, when the first rays of sunshine penetrate the ground fog, there is a fascinating play of light in the dammed water areas. https://weites.land/wildes-moor-bei-osterroenfeld/

Great for a little break
