Hippelsteinchen - Gönnersdorf

Gönnersdorf

Geologically speaking, the "Hippelsteinchen" is a dolomite and mushroom rock. Several dolomite blocks are layerd on top of each other so that the rock formation resembles a mushroom, about 5 meters high and just as wide. It is possible that since ancient times the stone served as a border stone, probably even as a signpost and a plave of worship.

Keltisch-Römische Tempelanlage Juddekirchhof

The Roman Marcus Victorius Polentius donated a temple dedicated to the goddess Caiva on the Munterley Plateau in 124 AD, presumably in gratitude for a victorious battle. Today the place of worship is popularly called "Juddekirchhof". The name comes from "Joddekirchhoff", i. e. "yard around the church (sanctuary) of the Jodd", where "Jodd" is synonymous with "godfather". The Celtic matrons had about the same duties as Catholic godmothers.
