The Jewish beech

It is the only place that can be clearly identified in Annette von Droste-Hülshoff's novellaDie Judenbuche ” :

“So we ran to Heerse; then it was still dark, and we hid behind the large cross in the churchyard until it got a little lighter because we were afraid of the quarries on the Zellerfelde, and suddenly we heard snorting and snorting overhead as we had sat for a while stamp and saw long beams of fire in the air just above the Heers church tower. We jumped up and ran what we could, in God's name, and when it dawned we were really on the right path to P. (probably Paderborn, editor's note) "

- Annette von Droste-Hülshoff

In her youth the poet visited her aunt there, the canoness Sophia Theresia von Haxthausen , and then lived in her curia, today Asseburger Strasse 3, which was diagonally across from the cross.
