It is not a mountain hut in that sense. It belongs to the state forests and is used for forest workers and driven hunts.

The Kötzen Oak stands on the Würzburg (formerly Heidingsfeld) city limits and also served to mark the boundary. Distinctive trees were often used as boundary markers in earlier times because, unlike boundary stones, they were immovable. The name Kötzen Oak comes from the Kötze, which is colloquially a type of backpack and served as a means of transport for the rural population on their way to the city, especially to the market.

Summit cross – the highest point above the rooftops of Retzstadt. A bit hidden, but a lovely place to take a break. ☺️

The Franconian shell limestone offers excellent conditions for viticulture, and winegrowing has a very long tradition here.
