„Krüsel“ is derived from Low German and figuratively means an „excellent“ or „elevated“ place – a fitting description for this striking point on the hill. 📍⛰️

In earlier times, this place served as a place of justice where the so-called Westphalian Femgerichte convened. Under the sprawling branches of the linden tree, right and wrong were decided – as symbols of this era, the rope and sword still lie under the tree today. ⚖️📜

🚲🌳✨ The Krüsellinde in Altenberge is not only an impressive natural monument, but also a place of deeply rooted history and the municipality's proud coat of arms symbol. This over 300-year-old linden tree stands on the Altenberger ridge and marks a spot that was of great importance centuries ago.
