Hiking

The pilgrim's cross "Im Steinreich" was erected in 1989 by master blacksmith Günter Jacobs to commemorate the pilgrim Willi Classen who died there on May 12, 1988. He was with the pilgrims from Aachen-Forst and the surrounding area on the way to Trier of the holy apostle Matthias in the Abbey of Sk .Matthias. The pilgrims always go there 6 weeks after Easter.
