history
The name was first mentioned in a document in 1305. It is based on the Old High German word witu , forest. Since it is a mountain range made up of at least six distinguishable but hardly noticeable hills, these are numbered consecutively by the local population. In the 19th century, the previously partially deforested mountains were reforested.
