Hollow Stone (Taufstein) Natural Monument

Highlight • Natural Monument

The natural monument 'Hohler Stein' is also called 'baptismal font' and was declared a natural monument in 1958. According to tradition, baptisms never actually took place here.
How did this stone structure come about?
Around 4 million years ago, boulders were deposited here and a second stone rotated on top of it - which over time created the depression.

Rehgartlkreuz

Highlight • Religious Site

Whether the cross in question actually dates from 1642 cannot be verified. The inscription mentioned is missing today, and written sources are unavailable. In 1499, the "Rechgärtl" was already mentioned as a field name. Its location is curious, as it stands in a shallow, almost level hollow near the Kulmriegel. At that time, numerous finds confirm that a Roman road, the so-called Hochstraße, ran through here. Just a few hundred meters from the Rehgartl Cross, 21 Roman silver denarii were found.

Forest Chapel (Waldkapelle)

Highlight • Religious Site

The chapel was built by Carlo and Helene Carniel in 1899.
An image of the Virgin Mary that was thought to be lost was the initial spark for building the chapel. The picture was found here on a tree while taking a walk.

Summit cross and viewpoint near Türkensturz

Highlight • Summit

“Each of these crosses can tell its own story and what prompted people to erect “their” cross at this point. (...) These wayside crosses were erected as visible signs and attract the attention of many people. The cross is a symbol of life. It stands as a sign of our Christian hope and wants to direct our gaze to Jesus Christ, who has overcome death (...). The cross is part of our life as it was in the life of Jesus.
So I wish that many people … visit the crosses, whether as places of stillness and breathing space before God, whether as places for community gatherings, prayer and praise to God.”
(Text source: Dean Rainald M. Ollig
in: "Crossroads... small sacred monuments as a sign of popular piety")

Beech Forest on Schlossberg

Highlight • Forest

The beech is one of the economically most important deciduous trees in Central Europe. It is a very productive tree species in almost all locations. A special feature is its high plasticity into old age, which results in its very long growth performance. A decline in growth performance is not to be expected.
