Hillfort in Bavaria

A Celtic hillfort located on the top of a steep hill. The ramparts are partly recognizable but are covered by earth and forest. Its hardly not understandable, that there are no signs to tell the public, what lies under the ground, because the dimensions are quite impressive.
The whole area must have been an important Celtic settlement site in the past.
5 km to the southeast was an important settlement called Pollanten, which is now archaeologically well described. 9 km to the north lies another hillfort called Buchberg.
