The Neubulach silver mine is very interesting and worth seeing! It's also in a very idyllic location. You can only enter with a guide, a helmet (very important), and a cape!

St. George's Church is part of the once fortified little town. It was first mentioned as a chapel in 1379 and was given its current dimensions in 1578. The gravestones of the Buwinghausen castle family from the 17th/18th century give the light-flooded interior a special character.
