Historic Pillory in Sauerland

Highlight • Historical Site

An old pillory with an information board. This is where the expression "to put someone in the pillory" takes shape.

There were a total of seven fortress towers along the historic Marsberg city wall. From the partially preserved Buttenturm on the 400 meter high mountain plateau you have a wonderful view of the Diemeltal.

Draken Caves, Obermarsberg

Highlight • Cave

There are several legends about the Drakenhöhle. Apparently Siegfried is said to have defeated the dragon Fafnir here and then bathed in his blood. Whether that actually happened here in Marsberg remains to be seen - there are several caves in Germany that lay claim to this story. Anyway, maybe another dragon has just guarded a valuable treasure here. ;)
