The title of the highlight “Shelter in the Taunus” is misleading; we are here in the Giessen district of central Hesse.

The "Schutzhütte" is located in the Bergwerkswald and actually consists only of a nicely designed roof with a circular bench.

My grandma said: "the pavilion is called Theodor´s Ruh".
And the roof has also been newly done again. - looks much better now.
This pavilion in the Gießener Bergwerkswald cannot be described as a shelter.
