Culture and sights

Buildings

  • The baroque Catholic Chapel of St. Georg (Street 8) was built in 1698 (according to its name) and renovated in 1948. The listed, plastered solid building with roof turret is dedicated to St. Georgius.
  • The old wayside cross was erected in 1882 by the Linder family on their farm at the end of the village in the direction of Hattenweiler . After the stone cross with the gilded Christ body had overturned several times, it turned out to be gray, unsightly and chipped. The inscription was illegible and the medallion was missing from the sandstone base. In 2013 it was restored by today's neighbor Fritz Bärenbold and the Soldiers' Comradeship in Denkingen and consecrated again.
  • The former Waaghäuschen is also located in the village .
