Stone Age village with circular ditch

The area around Heldenberg was already inhabited in the Neolithic Age. This has been proven by finds that have also made it possible to reconstruct the Neolithic village. In addition to the buildings from this period, everyday life with various prehistoric craft activities is presented.
Circular ditches are complexes consisting of one or more concentric, circular ditches with a diameter of 40 to 180 meters. The circular ditches, which were built around 5,000 years before the birth of Christ, were surrounded by palisade fences and astronomical aspects and findings were used in the construction of the mighty gates.

The Stone Age village and the circular ditches can be visited without a guided tour.
