history

The Aschberg was created during the Vistula glaciation . During this time, the Baltic Sea glacier in Schleswig-Holstein divided into a "Holstein Lobus " and a "Eckernförde Lobus".

The "Eckernförder lobe" turn (even according to some geologists before the ice age scale) announced relying Eckernförder area taking advantage of a deep line of Eckernförde Bay in a northern ( " Windebyer Noor -Zunge") and a southern ( " Wittensee - Goossee - Tongue ") partial ice tongue. The Windebyer-Noor tongue formed, among other things, the Hüttener Berge and thus also the Aschberg.

The 7 m high Bismarck statue has stood on the Aschberg since 1930. It was made in copper by the Berlin metal sculptor Gustav Lind according to a design by the sculptor Adolf Brütt . In 1919, at the instigation of the Knivsberg Society, it was salvaged from the niche of the Bismarck Tower on the Knivsberg near Aabenraa in North Schleswig . In the run-up to the referendum in Schleswig , it was feared that it would be destroyed or damaged.

At the end of the 19th century, a wooden observation tower was built on the Aschberg for the first time, which was replaced after a few years. This tower, about 10 meters high, was called the Kaiser Wilhelm Tower. It existed until around 1918.

A boulder with an inscription on the Aschberg commemorates Johann von Bruyn .

Redesign of the area in 2012/13

In 2012 and 2013 the approximately 10-  hectare area on the Aschberg was redesigned for 11 million euros. After three years of planning and 18 months of construction, a hotel with 30 double rooms, a seminar building with catering and an around 20 meter high observation and climbing tower were built. The clearance of the climbing tower, the preparation of an adjacent multifunctional area and the opening of a youth hostel took place in 2014. The redesign of the area was not undisputed; According to the information provided by the former operator, 2,800 supporters ' signatures had been collected for the preservation of the previous development with the Aschberg-Stuben .

Aschberg Festival

The Aschbergfest took place with interruptions since 1921, from 1922 under the direction of the Aschberggesellschaft . After Nordschleswig was ceded to Denmark, those who had emigrated from Nordschleswig organized the first festival in 1921 - in that year under the name Nordmarkfest - as a replacement for the Knivsbergfest . As part of the Aschberg Festival in 1930, the Bismarck memorial , which stood on Knivsberg a decade earlier , was inaugurated. The festival developed into an annual event with folklore, dance, sports, theater and other program items on the Aschberg and below the Aschberg (including in Baumgarten ) and at times also with nationalistic elements. In some years the Aschbergfest attracted visitors in the five-digit range. From 1951 it is reported that 10,000 visitors came to both days of the event (August 25 and 26); 8,000 visitors attended a local rally and 7,000 attended a football match between Eckernförde SV (ESV) and Eckernförde Men's Gymnastics Club (EMTV). Aschberg festivals took place at least in the 1980s.
