The Iron Seat (Bahlsen Hunting Lodge) near Wettmar

Highlight • Structure

The access to this "lost place" is very hidden. In August 2024, mosquitoes attacked this short path covered with fresh grass. But nature is slowly reclaiming the place. Now a tree has fallen on the house.

Heck cattle and wild horses can be observed here, if you want. The pasture tells a piece of grazing history and there is more information on the corresponding information board.

Highlight • Mountain Hut

Refuge with a canopy.
There are benches on 3 walls in the hut. These are quite wide and also suitable for overnight stays in an emergency. There is also a bench under the canopy.

At the edge of the Resse sports field there is still a remnant of a sandy heath. The heath was recently renatured as part of an EU-supported nature project and is now part of the moor adventure trail.

Coming from the railway line, before the 2nd path branching off to the left, a trail goes into the forest on the left. About 400 m to the hunting lodge.

We were there today, too. We finally made it. It was very hidden, but we found it in the end. It's impressive. The ravages of time are already taking their toll. A tree has already fallen on it, but it's standing rock solid.

The Bahlsen hunting lodge is popularly known as "The Iron Seat". Quote: "It is reported that the house was very well equipped inside. There were beds, a kitchen, washing facilities and even a toilet. In addition to the garage under the house, there was supposedly a swimming pool in the early years, but this was filled in when the house was no longer in use." Uncertain records, but conceivable, in any case electricity and water connections are still visible today. The clearing in front of the house is said to have been cleared for hunting purposes at the time.
