This peak is shown on many maps and has a radio mast that can be seen from afar. Anyone who suspects a view will not get their money's worth, because it is a wooded peak.

St. Oswald is the name of the Roman Catholic parish and the city parish church in Baunach. Based on the Fulda document, it can be proven that a church building existed in Baunach as early as 815, presumably built under the Fulda abbot Ratgar (802–817). The church is said to have been consecrated in 823 by the Würzburg bishop Wolfgar (809/10–831/32). It is under the patronage of St. Oswald (604–642). It is one of the oldest patronages in Germany.
