Church of the Assumption
The church was first mentioned in 1269. The church tower dates from the last quarter of the 16th century, the tower roof was changed at the beginning of the 20th century. The nave was renewed between 1774 and 1776. The interior of the church was renovated from 1988 to 1990. There are numerous paintings and sculptures here, including a Pietà above the altar from the 17th century, and in the right side chapel a shrine with relics of Saint Justin . The organ dates from 1789.
Capuchin Monastery of St. Alfons
Capuchins moved in in the middle of the 17th century by the Hug brothers , the bailiffs of the Landser lordship . During the French Revolution, the convent was driven out. The convent buildings were sold as state property but fell into disrepair over the next few years. In 1842 the Redemptorists bought the building. They repaired it and built a new chapel. In 1873 the German authorities closed the monastery and it stood empty again for many years. In 1929 the monastery was given to Redemptorists . Some renovations were carried out, among other things the main building was increased by one floor. The Redemptorists settled in the monastery in 1931. With the exception of the war years, they worked there until today and, in addition to prayer, they deal with the production of hosts and images of saints, with bookbinding and gardening. The mill ("Klostermühl") located a little north of the monastery at Ibenbach has long been out of service and is now part of the Don Bosco farm.
