Königswalde

Königswalde is one of the most striking Waldhufendörfer in the Ore Mountains due to the stone ridges that have been preserved which mark the boundaries of the field strips. The Waldhufendorf is a form of rural settlement established in areas of forest clearing with the farms arranged in a series along a road or stream, like beads on a chain. It is typical of the forests of central Germany and is a type of Reihendorf, in which each farmstead usually has two wide strips of land adjacent to the farmhouse.
