The Funkenburg (spark's fortress) Westgreußen was an ancient Germanic settlement from 200 BC to 50 AD. Today it's an outdoor museum with reconstructed houses and a wall. Some ancient activities are provided like baking bread, spinning wool, making pottery, knotting flew and shoot with bow and arrow.
