From the 16th century until the middle of 1759, the "High Court" on Lechlumer Holz served as the main court of justice for the Principality of Braunschweig-Wolfenbüttel.
The facility is located on a hilltop (Galgenberg) above the Oker on the northwestern edge of the Lechlumer Holz.
At the time of the Guelph Dukes Heinrich Julius (1589–1613) and August the Younger (1579–1666), numerous “witches” and “sorceresses” were also killed here at the stake or by beheading
