Very nice council square to linger at the Great Gabelwehr with an information board and the small but beautifully planted grave of the unknown soldier from 1945.
In a figurative sense, the tomb of the unknown soldier not only stands for the soldiers who died anonymously in an unknown place, but also represents the tomb of every soldier who fell in the war or died from war-related injuries.

The fork weir regulated an even flow of water into the Große and Kleine Röder, which was of great importance for the adjacent mills and hydropower plants as well as for feeding the ponds (e.g. around Zabeltitz, Frauenhain, Koselitz, Tiefenau, ...). Furthermore, from then on, the amount of water in the flood could be regulated and discharged via the Geißlitz, so that flooding in the Röder lowlands with the villages and agricultural areas could be minimized.
