Crazy that you only notice something like this on Komoot after you've ridden past it... I wouldn't have suspected it at the location itself!

The village pond is a beautiful place of rest.

The nice thing about this memorial is that it does not contain any grand texts about the fatherland or exaggerated concepts of honor. It is simply about remembering the people.

Next to the memorial in Kröppelshagen there is an idyllic rest area with benches and tables next to a small pond that invites you to take a break. The memorial is a well-kept complex on the outskirts of the town, located in “Hohenhorner Weg”. The memorial itself consists of three stone slabs, the middle of which commemorates the victims of the First World War, while the names of the dead and missing from the Second World War are listed on the two outer stones. http://www.denkmalprojekt.org/dkm_deutschland/kroeppelshagen-fahrdorf_wk2_sh.htm

At the southernmost point of the Hamburg Elbe is the “smallest restaurant in the world”: the old Zollenspieker Pegelhäuschen. The water gauge house, built around 1880 and demolished in 1992, was able to be rebuilt true to the original thanks to donations. Ideal for a run along the Elbe, there is a path around the Zollenspieker Fährhaus that I regularly use when jogging.
