Finnebahn Bridge
Highlight • Bridge
Saubach is on the disused Finnebahn Laucha-Kölleda. The tracks and the station have been preserved. Here, too, the ravages of time gnawed. The railing has a great rust look.
The Laucha–Kölleda railway, better known as the Finnebahn, was a single-track branch line in what is now Saxony-Anhalt and Thuringia. It branches off the Unstrut Railway in Laucha and meets the Straußfurt–Großheringen railway in Kölleda. Two viaducts in the Saubachtal that are listed as historical monuments deserve special mention, the 29 meter high and 100 meter long Schnecktal Bridge and the 20 meter high 12 Apostle Bridge.

Herb Garden of the Primary School
Highlight • Structure
This herb garden of the primary school wants to bring the great importance of our local medicinal plants closer to children and adults.
It invites you to experience nature with all your senses and serves the practical implementation of herbal medicine.
Various topics related to herbs and Kneipp also offer all those interested some opportunities this year to deal more intensively with the treasures on our doorstep. In addition to the topics of veins, tension and medicinal wines, two courses on the focus on movement are new to the program in July, which are particularly interesting for educators and people who organize such offers with children.

Sebastian Kneipp Primary School Saubach
Highlight • Structure
The Sebastian Kneipp elementary school in Saubach is the only school in Germany that has been teaching according to the holistic concept of the Kneipp approach for nine years and has been certified accordingly. "The basis lies in the integration of the healing and life concept according to Kneipp into everyday school life," explains the director. In the large garden, last year's school beginners grow their own vegetables and herbs with the teachers, cook together once a week and thus learn about healthy and conscious nutrition in a playful way. The teachers, specially trained by the Kneipp Association, show the children how to give themselves the famous Kneipp affusions and help them to find their own individual rhythm. europa.sachsen-anhalt.de/esi-fonds-in-sachsen-anhalt/information-for-interested/successful-projects/successful-projects-eler/sebastian-kneipp-gs-saubach
