There was already a church here in the Middle Ages. The church in its current form dates back to the 18th century. The design of the church wall is interesting; it was covered with photographic film, but this is only noticeable at second glance.

It's in the middle of the village and is even more beautiful inside.

The Wisenta tunnel leads to the Lössau dam. It was built to raise the water level of the Weida in order to supply the former Zeulenroda drinking water dam with sufficient water.

I had never been to this place until today, although I live nearby. Just great to see something like that.

As far as I know, Mr. Winkler - the farm on the right next to it - built this really funny hiking trail himself, just to make others happy. Thanks very much.
