St. Marien in Stollberg. Info: Was a hall church built in the 13th century (the "first" late Romanesque building), proven by later excavation, and was converted into a two-aisled hall church with a larger extension in the first half of the 15th century and adapted to the Gothic style at the same time. It has been a listed building since the 1970s and is dedicated to the Virgin Mary (also: Nativity of Mary).

A historic high-altitude trail that runs along the northern edge of the Ore Mountains. From Katzenstein to Jahnsdorfblick, a forest and gravel path (except in Brünlos) is used. From Jahnsdorfblick to Klaffenbach, it is paved/asphalted.
