On the Mahlberg, not far from the tower, there are two soldiers' graves, of German soldiers who fell on April 10, 1945, shortly before the end of the war. An information board provides the historical context.

The fishpond on the Itterbach stream is an idyllic body of water that exudes tranquility. With a bit of luck, you might spot dragonflies or fish in the clear water.
