    Iben Castle and Templar Chapel – known as "Hof Iben" for short: Of the Templar church of a moated castle in the Appelbach Valley, first mentioned in 1258, only the choir remains, hidden in the middle of a farm. It is one of the oldest Gothic churches in Germany. The church interior is beautifully designed, and the fine stonemasonry belongs to the circle of the so-called "Naumburg Master," considered one of the finest sculptors of the 13th century. The acoustics are also fantastic; I highly recommend singing a song there to experience this special acoustics; I chose "Dona nobis pacem" – a moment that gave me goosebumps. Baptisms and weddings are still held there today. Access is via private property.
