The sign on the Spital Church is a quote from the 10 Commandments (Exodus 20:1-6): "You shall not make for yourself an idol, or any likeness of anything in heaven above or on the earth beneath or in the water under the earth."

The Schwabach Hospital was founded in 1375 by the Nuremberg citizen Hermann Rosenhart, also known as the bell founder, and his wife Elisabeth, with the support of the regional ruler, Burgrave Frederick V of Nuremberg. The first consecration of the present hospital church took place in 1404 and is dedicated to the Holy Spirit, St. Anthony, and St. Elizabeth. The church underwent several renovations in the following centuries. The hall church visible today dates from 1755/56 and was presumably designed by the margravial architect Johann David Steingruber. During these renovations, the Gothic chancel was walled up, and a pulpit was erected above the altar. These alterations were reversed in the 19th century. The current appearance of the hospital church is the result of the reconstruction work carried out after the bombing in 1941.

The castle was built in the 14th century as a moated castle and was originally owned by the local noble family of Wolkersdorf. Over the centuries, the castle changed hands several times, including the Tucher, Geuder and Landauer families. The castle is a lowland castle and occupies an almost square area of about 28 × 26 meters. Today, only the main building with three floors remains, while the surrounding ring wall and most of the corner towers were demolished in the 19th century.

Unfortunately still a construction site.

The place was first mentioned in a document in 1287 as "Levtoldeshove".[5][6] Its foundation thus falls into the phase of the high medieval expansion of the country in the 12th and 13th centuries. The defining word of the place name is Liutold, the personal name of the founder of the settlement.[7] In 1732, according to the district descriptions by Johann Georg Vetter, there were 12 properties in Leitelshof. 2 properties were under the jurisdiction of the Imperial City of Nuremberg (St. Klara's Office: 1, Imperial Alms: 1) and 10 properties were under the jurisdiction of the Teutonic Order Commandery of Nuremberg.[8] Towards the end of the 18th century, there were still 12 properties and a parish shepherd's house in Leitelshof. The high court exercised the Brandenburg-Ansbach judgeship of Roßtal. The Teutonic Order Commandery of Nuremberg held the village and parish authority. The landowners were the Teutonic Order Commandery of Nuremberg (4 whole farms, 3 half farms, 1 small farm), the Schwabach Caste Office (1 small farm), the State Alms Office of the Imperial City of Nuremberg (1 Köblergut) and the Nuremberg owner von Scheurl (2 half farms).[9] From 1797 to 1808 the place was under the jurisdiction of the Schwabach Justice and Chamber Office. As part of the municipal edict in 1808, Leitelshof was assigned to the Regelsbach tax district (II. Section) and the Regelsbach rural community formed in 1818. On May 1, 1978, Leitelshof was incorporated into Rohr as part of the regional reform in Bavaria. Source: Wikipedia

On the initiative of the Goldschläger Guild, Schwabacher and guests were able to gild the boulder themselves.

Unfortunately, the moated castle in Wolkersdorf cannot be visited as it is privately inhabited.
