Hiking

In the 18th century there was still a deep moat here where the horses were cooled and cleaned after work.

There aren't many facilities like this anymore, but it's nice if something like this is preserved for future generations

Hiking

From around 1240 until the middle of the last century, horses were brought into the water and cleaned in this horse pond after work. In summer it was also used to cool the heated horses. Due to the nature of the subsoil and the inflow of surface water, water was available here all year round.
