The pilgrimage church of St. Johannes Nepomuk was built in 1732, but was not consecrated until September 22, 1974 . It contains valuable baroque furnishings and late Gothic wooden figures. There is a procession to this church on the days of prayer . On March 23, 1913 (Easter), Johannisberg was listed as part of the Oberviechtach parish with two houses and 15 residents. Until the 1970s, there were a few eagle owls and capercaillies on Johannisberg. The land consolidation carried out at the time destroyed their habitats and the last specimens were exterminated through hunting . On December 31, 1990 Johannisberg had 18 inhabitants and belonged to the parish of Oberviechtach.
