    Hiking

    Inside the beautifully renovated, small "guard house", which now serves as a bus stop, there are photos and information boards, including from historical times.

    This building used to have NO military function, but served as the village bell, as there was no church in Ludwigswinkel at the time. It was also used as a fire bell for firefighting.
