The Heiligenberg Tower is a lookout tower at St. Stephen's Monastery, which was built in the 19th century from stones from this monastery.
The exact time of creation and function of the 55 meter deep Heidenloch are unknown. It is probably a cistern or a well shaft that was built in Roman times. In 1987 the shaft was uncovered and a shelter was built above it.
