A few weeks ago, a squad of loggers thinned out the woods below a landmark of Blaubeuren: The Schillerstein-monument above Gerhausen. For the first time in decades, as a neighbour told me, the specific rock ("Hörnle"), on which the Schillerstein was built a 100+ years ago, is visible again from the valley. And even better, the view from up there is not disturbed by tall trees anymore!
We were strolling through the woods near the local restaurant "Schillerstein", when we suddenly detected something "artificial": an old, deserted lodge. Even more gripping: nearby we found the entrance to that old tunnel. Later, the aged owner of the tavern told us, that this tunnel once was used to transport abort from a stone quarry, that was abandondend around the year 1900. Fascinating!
Maybe we should check, whether the tunnel today is already used for geocaching?!
