The border fort on the Vietz ski jump, the "Castellum Hobuoki" was built by Charlemagne here to protect his Franconian empire against the bad guys across the Elbe.

Great view and really sheltered from the wind and covered, it is ideal for a break

Historically very interesting, from the viewing platform you have a good view of the Elbe. No wonder this place was strategically so important.
