If the poet is truly buried here, then it's in a very beautiful setting, fitting for him, with magnificent heathland. It's generally easy to get here by bike, as long as you don't expect a paved path; otherwise, you can push your bike a bit. This heathland isn't that big.

The monument in honor of Hermann Löns is located in a small but very beautiful heathland. A few meters away is also Hermann Löns's grave.

Some of the deer also seem to have "free range" - we encountered one in the wild about 500 meters further south
