Teutoburg Forest
The Teutoburg Forest is a range of low wooded hills in northern Germany, running about 100 km south-east from the Osnabrück area to near Paderborn. It gave its name to the Battle of the Teutoburg Forest in 9 CE, in which Arminius destroyed three Roman legions. In the Middle Ages its ridges and valleys were divided among small Westphalian lordships, including Lippe, Tecklenburg and Ravensberg.
