A beautiful chapel, but only at church services, etc., is open. A very nice quiet place.

The forest church MARIA STERNBACH is definitely worth seeing. It was first mentioned in a document in 778. For almost 775 years it was actually a village church with surrounding courtyards and a small village pond. However, the place disappeared by 1564; only the church remained and was maintained by the monks in the nearby WICKSTADT monastery. The plague raged in the Wetterau in 1555. There is a high probability that the residents of STERNBACH died. The depopulated place fell into disrepair. Any survivors found their livelihood with the monks in WICKSTADT.

Beautiful little church in the middle of the forest with remains of the walls of the medieval village and a very beautiful pond, which is reminiscent of a fish pond in a monastery
