The Rantzauer Forest is an approximately 195 ha large recreational forest in the district of Segeberg in Schleswig-Holstein.
The outermost path along the edge of the forest is particularly beautiful: the Krückau is touched; nature is particularly lush and rustic here; A narrow path winds its way through the Rantzau forest on rooty and mossy paths and small ponds are also passed.

Memorial Stone for Count Christian Detlev von Rantzau

Highlight • Monument

During the reign of Count Christian Detlef zu Rantzau, there were repeated riots at Rantzau Castle in Barmstedt, as he lived very excessively and fleeced his subjects. On a trip to Berlin he was arrested because the childless count was accused of homosexual acts. He was only released from captivity after 5 years. Meanwhile, his brother Wilhelm Adolf von Rantzau took over the government and was much more popular. But when Christian returned, he took control again and carried on as before. A year later, while he was hunting in the forest, a bullet from the undergrowth killed him. If an accident was initially assumed, his brother Wilhelm Adolf was soon suspected of being the instigator of the murder. He was imprisoned and the county of Rantzau and its possessions were confiscated by the Danish king. Nevertheless, the fratricide could never be fully proven. The memorial stone stands where the alleged fratricide is said to have taken place.
