Eichwald Circular Route

Highlight • Forest

Relaxing oasis with wide paths and enchanted paths. Lots of nice places to take a break! You can follow a signposted circular route for 4.8 km or simply roam back and forth. Don't worry, you'll always hit an exit 😉

On March 26, 1945, two people were shot here in the Eichwald forest.
Wendelin Bauer was just 18 years old when he lost his life here. Along with another young man whose name is unknown. A court martial in Bad Soden sentenced the young men to death for desertion.
From March 26 to 29, 1945, American troops captured Frankfurt without much resistance... too late for the two.
