Tree stump with Wolfsangel carving

Highlight • Structure

During my hike in Winkel (Gifhorner Heide and Gifhorner Schweiz) I also found such a wolf rod on a tree stump as a clearly visible relief. The position is at the hiking highlight "Forest Bus Stop" - on the northern side of the All Canal on connecting path 39010.
The Federal Office for the Protection of the Constitution keeps a list of banned symbols that can be assigned to right-wing extremism. This also includes the Wolfsangel. However, it is permitted for use in forestry.

But it could also be that the Wolfsangel here in the Gifhorn Heath area is to be seen as a signature of Hermann Löns, since he added this symbol to the signatures of his poems. At least he was probably on his way here, since the boards are all marked with Hermann Löns. e.g. "In the footsteps of Hermann Löns".
