The bronze image of the "last wolf" is at the small Westerteich on Bült-Patt in Herbern. The wolf path of the castle axis Nordkirchen and Westerwinkel goes from Westerwinkel Castle to the Heimathaus in Herbern (approx. 2.8 km)

Somewhat hidden and smaller than I thought. The memorial is by a small pond and there are a few benches with information boards nearby.

“The last wolf of Westphalia. On January 19, 1835, the last wolf in Westphalia was hunted down here by the innkeeper Joseph Hennemann, Herbern. This memorial stone was placed on the hundredth anniversary.” There is also a heavily weathered monument opposite the no-longer-operating restaurant “Zum Statten Wolf” in Herbern-Horn.
