A short, exciting trail with historical background 🌳✨. The narrow path leads directly past the Celtic square enclosure – a millennia-old monument – and connects nature experience with history 🌀. Quietly located, slightly enchanted, and perfect for those seeking variety away from the wide paths.

Memorial to three French soldiers who fell in 1945; stone cross (without corpus) on a pedestal with inscription. On April 22, 1945, three French marines were found dead about 300 meters from Rübgarten, in the direction of the Gniebler Forest. In retaliation, the advancing French set fire to 13 buildings. Since firefighting was forbidden, the houses burned down. A simple stone cross with an inscription in French, surrounded by a hedge near the cemetery, commemorates the three fallen French soldiers.
