On the Hahnberg near Melkendorf is the cenotaph of the Franconian Choir, which was built from 12 columns with white sand-lime brick. It is in a wonderful location and is the only singing honor in Germany.

The Singers Monument is a memorial for the fallen and deceased Frankens singers. It was inaugurated in 1953, with the twelve stone pillars corresponding to the circles of the Franconian Choir Association. On the altar-like desk is the Latin inscription "MORTUI VIVIMUS" ("We dead live").
