The "Siebenahorn" is one of the 43 Sauerland-Seelenorte in the Sauerland-Wanderdorf.

Surrounded by seven maple trees, this place is a reminder of what used to happen here:
In the middle is a stone judge's table surrounded by stone blocks, which were used as seats. Only those accused of a serious offense came here. Under the chairmanship of the Freigrafen, a verdict was passed on the basis of the statements and evidence. One thing above all else applied to the aldermen: absolute silence about the place, the punishments and the court.
A place of contradictions and of right and wrong.
