Huguenot Tower, Bad Karlshafen

Highlight • Monument

The Huguenot Tower offers a great view of Bad Karlshafen and the confluence of the Diemel and Weser. The baroque planned city can be well surveyed from here. A comparison with the model in the town hall is interesting!

Quarry at Carlplatz

Highlight • Structure

At this quarry, a piece of economic history is shown and described, made very interesting. I find the truck connection from the steep hill to the valley, which existed once, particularly surprising.

First 100 meters of ascent to the visitor quarry, then further along the old border path. I like the open space with a wide view of the holy land. At the Peter Peter hut it goes down again to B.K. with a short break on the Huguenot tower.
