Wind generator
[edit]On 26 May 1992 a wind generator was built on the Hohwart Saddle, not far from the summit of the Hohwart.[4] It was one of the first wind turbines in Baden-Württemberg.[5][6] It is an Enercon type E-32/E-33 with a 3-blade rotor and a hub height of 33.5 m.[7]
Schanze on the Hohwart
[edit]On the Hohwart is a schanze.[8] It was part of the baroque fortifications in the Black Forest. It was a square schanze in which there were log cabins. The schanze on the Hohwart was not linked by a bank-and-ditch system to its neighbouring schanzes, the Schanze auf dem Haldenbuck and the Ringelschanze on the Roßberg.[9]
