geography

The place is about one kilometer southwest of the core town of Schleiz. The place has developed from a street village that was located on the old military road to Lobenstein via Burgk. The two-line main street ran from north to south and had cross streets. The highest point in the Oschitz corridor is the Kulm on the eastern edge of the village.
