It's worth taking a look at the pumpkin house across the street, where you can buy a variety of pumpkins during harvest time.

In the self-service refrigerator with a cash register, you'll find farmhouse ice cream from Wernfels in various flavors, including pumpkin with a little luck.

Here you can find everything to do with pumpkins and you won't be able to imagine what you can make with pumpkins. It's worth taking a look at the farm shop.

Numerous springs feed about a dozen ponds used for fishing to the west and east of the town, which is otherwise surrounded by dense forests.

The area around Ungerthal was already inhabited by people in the Stone Age, as evidenced by individual finds from a 1998 excavation at the Osterwiese castle ruins, located 700 meters south. A Bronze Age settlement was located 600 meters north of Ungerthal on the Erlberg. At the turn of the millennium, the area was the southernmost extension of the Nariski settlement area.
