    The Katharinen cemetery of the city of Herzberg is located here. The historic St. Catherine's Chapel (since 1411) and the Heilig-Geist-Hospital (since 1609), which is now used as a cemetery administration, are accessible.

      The Herzberg water tower was built between 1959 and 1960. The 37-meter high building is a square, seven-story steel skeleton structure with brick walls. The water tank is located in the tower head and office space on the remaining floors.
      Since its construction, the building on the roof has been equipped with an observatory, the dome of which is three meters in diameter and was used primarily for teaching purposes at the nearby school, today elementary and comprehensive school "Johannes Clajus". This dome has a hydraulic drive and is equipped with a slit tracking system. The facility is currently equipped with a 12-inch Schmidt-Cassegrain telescope LX200 from the manufacturer Meade, which enables users to observe targeted stars up to a size of 14.5 mag.
