Site of the free court in Assinghausen (in use from latest 1297 to 1808)

Free courts (vehmic courts) have existed since Germanic times, especially in Westphalia.
The free court always met at a specific location. Under the chairmanship of the free earl, the aldermen administered justice in the presence of all the freemen.
The court dealt with murder, theft, arson, fornication, treason and heresy, among other things.
Originally, only the death penalty was known, which was carried out by the bailiff or the aldermen, but later other punishments were also used.

My hometown in the fog

November 2024

When a band of fog rolled up through the Ruhr valley this evening, I immediately launched the drone.
Unfortunately, the pictures didn't turn out well due to the lack of light.
But hopefully they still capture the impressive atmosphere I felt.

Briloner Eisenberg - Schlachtfeld #Fichtenwald

mediathek.rzgierskopp.de/w/tcE

Große Teile des Fichtenwaldes im #Sauerland sind 2023 dem #Klimawandel zum Opfer gefallen.
Die #Trockenheit und andere Umweltfaktoren machten die Fichten, welche Anfang des 19. Jahrhunderts aus wirtschaftlichen Gründen angesiedelt wurden, in den letzten Jahren zu einem leichten Opfer für #Parasiten, hauptsächlich den #Borkenkäfer.
