The source sanctuary Sudelfels near Him near Niedaltdorf is a Gallo-Roman sacral district with several small temples within a fenced-in district and a secular building, which probably served as a pilgrimage hostel.
One of the temples has an octagonal layout and contains a pool of water, which is fed by a spring. Fragments of statues and inscriptions and numerous votive offerings indicate the veneration of Roman (Apollo) and Celtic spring and blessing deities (Sirona, Rosmerta).
