=====================

- Historical site
- Other architecture, infrastructure, culture destinations
- Historical structure

The entrance area of a historic red-brick building with a large archway, set in a wooded area.

A brick archway leads through a cobblestone street lined with trees.

Red brick buildings with gabled roofs line a quiet street, surrounded by trees and meadows.

Two half-timbered houses line a country road, surrounded by dense forest and fenced-in gardens.

Set amid lush greenery, a 30 zone sign points the way past traditional buildings.

The 18.5-hectare forest estate is a listed building.

 At the end of the 1930s, the Liebenau forest settlement was built for the neighboring gunpowder factory as a factory settlement for German workers, foreign workers and forced laborers. After the Second World War, the estate was used by the British army as a residential area. After the British left in 1978, the estate was privatized and converted into a residential area.
