Worth seeing, medieval old town center around the market square and the historic town hall. Listed ensemble. At the Löwen inn, the alchemist and magician Dr. Faust died, according to the Zimmerian Chronicle, because one of the supreme devils, Mephistophiles, broke his neck here. The corresponding quote from the chronicle can be read on the facade of the lion. Today it is assumed that the lord of the castle Anton von Staufen employed him as a goldsmith and that he died in a chemical explosion.
