In the center of the village, next to the Protestant church, there is still the old school building from 1870. Up to 1966, 80 primary school students were taught by just one teacher here. This village school only had one large classroom; it was used as a "military hospital" during World War II. Wounded soldiers could receive makeshift treatment in the 6 × 10 meter classroom. Not only the nearby Nutscheid barracks, which was a very popular target of the Allies, caused a high number of wounded at the time.
