Not far from the former hut village is the Franziskus-Marterl and is a reminder of the resistance to the Wackersdorf reprocessing plant planned here in the 1980s. The WAA Resistance Marterl is dedicated to Saint Francis of Assisi and is surrounded by several other protest monuments such as the “Cross of Wackersdorf” and “The Torn Man”. Since 2015, an official information board from the Schwandorf district has commemorated the construction and the resistance against the WAW.
