The board contains information on the Vulkanstraße, which leads from the Eifel to Lusatia. Here you are near the Heldburger Gangschar. Numerous nearby basal cones (Straufhain, Gleichberge and of course the Veste Heldburg mountain) are evidence of former volcanic activity.

The Veste Heldburg was a high medieval hilltop castle that was converted into a Renaissance-style castle in the 16th century. It rises 113 meters above the town of Heldburg in Heldburger Land, the southernmost tip of the Hildburghausen district in Thuringia, on a 405 m high volcanic cone that was part of the former Heldburger Gangschar volcanic area.

Right next to the sign, a great trail leads to the former Old Oak, try it out. Added a picture, just do it.✌🏻
