The margraves (Ansbach-Brandenburgisch) had the hunting sovereignty here: Wildbann - in violation "losing the right ✋." Similar to the "Holzerne ✋" in the Lindner State Forest.

View of Merzbach

Wonderful view of the hills around Merzbach to Trautskirchen. The descent from here to Merzbach is really fun, but the other way around? It's good that there is this nice seat here. :-)
