Hellweg under the mountain
The Hellweg under the mountain (also Hellweg under mountains) was probably already the Romans used, north of the Weser mountain country and south of the vast marshy flat zones of Lower Saxony running trade route. The Hellweg leading from Minden to Ems and to Holland is also known as the Heerweg. The existence of this road plays an important role in some theories of determining the location of the Varus Battle .
In Minden, the Hellweg under the mountain connected to the Westphalian Hellweg and the Hellweg in front of the Santforde , which leads to the area of today's Hildesheim .
