Culture and sights
In the village there is a kindergarten of the German Red Cross and the fire station of the volunteer fire brigade . The next elementary school is in Sarstedt.
A quarry stone chapel from the 15th century, the Christophorus Chapel, is slightly elevated.
Buckel stone paving, layered natural stone walls, well-tended cottage gardens in the town's pretty half-timbered houses and the view of the landscape of the Linen Plain are well worth seeing.
