With a view of Elisenhof

With just under 120 inhabitants, Elisenhof is the smallest district of Bad Wünnenberg. Starting at the St. Sturmius chapel, you continue through the Friedrichsgrund up to the settlement of Eilern. Passing the Mittelborn spring, which was of great importance for the water supply of Elisenhof for a long time, you walk through a small wooded area towards the old gallows square. The last execution took place at this "execution site of the Sintfeld" in 1786. A memorial stone commemorates the history. Over the Eilerberg, with a great view of Elisenhof, you return to the starting point.

Author´s Tip / Recommendation of the author

Pay a visit to the "Meiwes" farm in Elisenhof. You can buy great regional food here. We particularly recommend a visit during strawberry season.
