7 stone dwarves in the Dahlener Heide. Seven Dwarfs rest stop bench. Info: Debris from a boulder that was blown up during the straightening of the Dahle stream in 1937. The stone remains of white and red granite were incorporated around the rest stop bench.

Dahlen Castle. Information: In 1744/51, Count Heinrich von Bünau commissioned the construction of the Baroque castle and its outbuildings. Dahlen Castle burned down in 1973. Initial cleanup work began in 1990/94. Today, with its events, it is once again an attractive destination for visitors from near and far.

At this point you are in the center of the Dahlener Heide and six different paths converge here. It used to be an important meeting point for hunters and lumberjacks - and because a huge oak tree once stood here, people always met "at the hunters' oak."
