프레켄펠트‬에서 가장 멋진 ‪20‬개의 천연기념물

This oak was most likely "planted during the Thirty Years' War, which ravaged Germany from 1618 to 1648". Source (quoted verbatim): Information board on site

Rustic rest area with stone tables and (unfortunately somewhat dated wooden benches); the spring flows (March 2024)! The Martha Spring and the Johanna Spring (near the Klingenmünster Clinic) refer to one and the same person, namely the young girl Martha Maria Johanna Sophie Karrer (1874 - 1887), who died at a young age after a long ordeal. "She was the eldest of the 5 daughters of the royal director (1883 - 1916) of today's Palatinate Clinic, Dr. Ferdinand Karrer and his wife Emma. [...] In memory of their daughter, the parents had 2 springs built, which have since then borne their child's first names." Source: Tourist information on the large hiking map at Landeck Castle

The view of the Rhine plain - with delicious Palatinate specialties - is ALWAYS part of our vacation for us. We have been coming to the Palatinate for many years and our very first trip has often been to Landeck!

Nice source. There are several benches to take a break.

A very nice place in the Bienwald with a bench to linger

Due to its freedom, this oak was able to develop into a mighty tree. It is about 300 to 350 years old and the circumference of 5.5m is impressive.

At this point I would like to quickly say something about the source: To quote the incomparable humorist Heinz Erhardt (1909 – 1979), who was known to a wide audience for his wordplay and “another poem,” with a short quatrain: "There's certainly a lot of beauty in it, on the element, the wet. Because you can drink the water. But you can leave it alone." (H.Erhardt)

During the Second World War, the anti-tank ditch was to be used, together with other barrier structures, as a tank barrier and to stop the French advance. Today a beautiful biotope with a bench to linger.
