Rock formation of the former Wackelstein

Highlight • Natural Monument

The 24-ton stone cuboid rests towering on a huge stone formation, inclined slightly towards the slope. It offers a weather-proof resting place on the slope side - ideal for relaxing. In 2011 the rock was tipped over and broken.

Klaus Chapel

Highlight • Religious Site

The Klauskapelle was originally a little pleasure house, which can be recognized by the hearts in the shutters. In 1933 the Schuster couple from Harruck bought the property, and Ms. Schuster donated the log house in memory of her fallen son Karl Schuster for church purposes. In 1948 the pastor had the house converted into a chapel. Anyone who rings the bell at the chapel three times by pulling the rope once, according to legend, will fulfill their wish.

The Klauskapelle can be reached by some hiking trails. If you like it short, you can park your car in the small parking lot, which is located about 500 meters northwest.

Klaus Chapel

Highlight • Religious Site

Originally a pleasure house of a factory owner's wife. We see this in the hearts in the chapel's shutters. In 1933, the property was bought at auction by the innkeeper couple Schuster from Harruck. In memory of her fallen son Karl Schuster, Mrs. Schuster donated the blockhouse for church purposes. In the late autumn of 1948, the local pastor at the time, Anton Hofbauer, had the house converted into a chapel, consecrated on the feast of Holy Brother Klaus (September 25).
According to legend, if you ring the bell in the Klauskapelle three times by pulling the rope once, your wish will come true.
