Hillfort in Bavaria
About 5 meter long stretch of Keltic Hillfort wall/Fortification in east west direction, abutting on wall holding up "Lovers Lane" near the charming and well preserved medieval town of Rothenburg ob der Tauber.
Take path from Felsenkeller Steige road, leading accross river about 2 KM West of town.
Nearby there is a "megalithic" memorial to Bismark and the remains of a 1950s ski-jump, which looks a lot like a tumulus.
