The Catholic St. Blasius Chapel was renovated and re-consecrated in 2007. The chapel apparently dates back to the Thirty Years' War and offers very little space for believers. It is a wayside chapel for hikers (and cyclists?) who wanted to seek God's blessing along the way. The chapel is open during the day. It has a bell that makes a beautiful sight when you come from the higher part of the path. The parish has set up a rest area with a table and benches in front of the chapel. The Martinusweg of the Diocese of Rottenburg-Stuttgart, Zußdorf-Aulendorf stage, passes here.
