Here, somewhat hidden beneath a mighty tree, stands a small Catholic chapel dedicated to Saint Leonard. It dates back to 1667 and was expanded in 1885. It has been repeatedly restored to this day. The wooden "bell cage" is of interest here.

This imposing building was built between 1907 and 1909 in the historicist style and is currently privately owned, so unfortunately it cannot be visited. Over the years, the ownership and use of the castle changed several times: in 1943, the property came into the possession of the Nazi state and was a guest house for the Reich Foreign Ministry; the most prominent guest in 1943 was Benito Mussolini. Briefly owned by the US Army after the war, the castle was taken over by the US government, which set up and operated a seminary of the Ukrainian Greek Catholic Church there in 1946. Finally, in 1961, the castle came into the possession of the Federal Republic of Germany, which housed a training center for candidates for the senior civil service at the BND there until 2000. After that, the site changed hands several times. Further information about this interesting building can be found on Wikipedia at https://de.wikipedia.org/wiki/Schloss_Hirschberg_am_Haarsee.

This nice little church, which essentially dates back to the Middle Ages (probably around 1350), was built in this form in 1759. The recessed choir in the east, closed on three sides, essentially comes from the demolished medieval predecessor building. In 1885, when the church was extended, an octagonal storey was added to the tower, which contains the belfry with the two bells. The high altar, which shows St. Afra of Augsburg on one side and her mother, St. Hilaria, on the other side, dates from 1730. Unfortunately, this chapel was closed today and we were only able to glimpse the interior through a side window - but it was worth it. All in all, a very tranquil and quiet place in the hamlet of Arnried.
