Almost 200 m (as the crow flies) east of the Bielstein summit is the massive natural monument Bielstein Church (also called Bielstein Church or Bielstein Church), a church- shaped basalt rock formation, the rocks of which rise up to about 15 m and were probably used as a sacrificial site in pre-Christian times .
The Michelskopf lakes are located almost 600 m (as the crow flies) northwest of the Bilstein summit on the Michelskopf . The source of the pork croissant lies in the direction of Eschenstruth .
