Waters
The Osterhofener Ach is a small stream which has its 2 sources in the Vorderer Berg / Haisterkircher ridge area. The two streams then join in the upper part of the village near the sandy path to the Osterhofener Ach. Two small lakes are fed by the brook before it was moved under the street in the Mahlgasse area and so on under Eggmannsriederstraße and Mühlhauserstraße until it finally flows into the Haisterbach at the end of the village.
Chapel, Virgin Mary Sacrifice
Around 1762 the chapel was commissioned by the Marian brotherhoods, the "old" from 1702 and the "new" from 1718.
2009: Installation of an electric bell, which was financed by private donations.
At the moment the chapel cannot be used due to the poor condition of the electrics and the roof structure. The parish already donated € 15,000 for the renovation in spring 2017.
The Sacrifice of the Virgin Mary is one of the largest chapels in the region.
