The high and richly structured west tower facade features giant pilasters with a pronounced center and side niches for figures. Above the round arch portal with crowning foliage decor, there is a segment arch window, and above that, a coat of arms stone from the Charterhouse Mauerbach.

A lap around this romantically located pond in the forest is always an experience. And afterwards, of course, to KOI for a coffee :) Perfect.

I hiked past here as part of my Eisenberg Tour. A beautiful church that presents itself on an elevation here in the village center. 38 steps lead up to the plateau where you will also find some seating. In the immediate vicinity, you will also find the war memorial and further resting places, as well as a stone well and a plague cross - both on the village square.

The airfield in Punitz extends to this point. From here you also have a nice view of the airfield facilities. And occasionally, one or two aircraft will roar overhead :)
