Very interesting, well laid out and therefore recommendable.

From 1939 to 1941, up to 250 Polish prisoners of war from the Mühlberg camp were housed in a barracks camp in the quarry of the basalt works on the Grosser Gleichberg. They had to do forced labor in the quarry, in the city, in agriculture or in the forest, among other things. From 1941 to 1942, a prisoner commando from the main camp in Bad Sulza with 120 prisoners was sent to the quarry. After the quarry was temporarily closed, a maximum of around 400 "foreign ethnic" forced laborers who had broken their contract were interned there in a Gestapo labor education camp from August 1943 to March 1945. The prisoners had to work in the basalt quarry or in the basalt works at Römhild station. They were also used to build bunkers and positions in Mendhausen and for a time in trades and crafts in Römhild and the surrounding area. At least 500 prisoners died in the camp or on the evacuation march in 1945. This includes 25 to 92 prisoners who were unable to march and were shot in a sand cave on the eastern slope of the Grosser Gleichberg. The cave entrance was then blown up, meaning that the mass grave was not found until the end of January 1947. (Wikipedia)

The dolphin fountain was created and artistically designed by the Thuringian Forest Association Römhild in 1903. Largely destroyed in the early 1970s, the current facility was built 10 years later and was last fundamentally renovated in 2013.

The long-distance hiking trail leads from Meiningen in the Werra Valley over the Gleichberge and Haßberge, through the Main Valley and the Steigerwald to the Aischgrund with the destination in Bad Windsheim. The trail is marked with the symbol of a bird's head brooch (a garment clasp). The trail connects the sites of prehistoric Celtic settlement, such as the Kleiner Gleichberg / Steinsburg.

The Celtic adventure trail with many information boards

The small cross marks the summit of the 679 m high Gleichberg.

Many information boards on the early historical settlements line the path. And otherwise the path through the forest is very nice to hike.

Dainty, but it serves its purpose
