The Trottbaum has been standing at Schiterberg since 2012. A plaque provides information about its more than 300-year history.

An anecdote about the Elliker Bridge: During the Second World War, the bridges near the border were charged with explosive charges. Fortunately, there was no need to actually trigger them. However, the Elliker bridge flew into the air because the explosive charge was struck by lightning shortly after the end of the war.
