Artifacts

Recent archaeological excavations in Hüllhorst, Germany, have revealed a rare and remarkably well-preserved Iron Age village. The discovery was made on a site originally designated for the construction of a new fire station on Lohagenweg. Work was halted when the first traces of ancient settlements, dating back to approximately 500 BC, appeared in the soil. Archaeologists from the Landschaftsverband Westfalen-Lippe (LWL) have uncovered clear outlines of house floor plans, storage pits, and workshops. The level of preservation for these structural remains is considered exceptional for this specific region of East Westphalia, where similar findings have only been documented in Werther and Minden.
