Traces of the former glassworks settlement are a striking clearing, a pond, a still existing vaulted cellar built in drywall construction and the preserved forest cemetery. The penultimate hut owner Traugott Christian Greiner, grandson of Johann Greiner, was buried there in 1845 next to his relatives. The Neuhaus am Rennweg local history club has redesigned the area as a hiking destination.
