Located outside the town in a hollow. Some of the tombs are quite impressive.

A little way off the main road, near Steinkreuz, at the edge of the forest you will find this idyllic spot.

Here you have a fantastic view of the surrounding area. You can see many sights from the Ochsenkopf, the Rauher Kulm, and the southern Fichtel Mountains.

Here you can always see boundary stones of the old trade route. You can read more detailed background information on the photographed board. It can be seen on an old border map by J.F. Weiss as early as 1761/1771. If you want, you can leave more photos of boundary stones here.
