Polzerkreuz
On an embankment in the center of the village there is a remarkable pillar shrine with a clapboard tent roof and rich folk baroque painting (Coronation of the Virgin Mary and angels). The "Leisbacherkreuz", as it is also called, was probably built after a flood; According to the inscription, the year of origin is 1680. Restorations took place in 1829, 1860 and 1878. In 1994 the cross was re-roofed and the wall surfaces were restored.
