    The Hubertus Chapel is a war bunker that was converted into a chapel from 1938. In 1998 the protective bunker was converted by the Oberpfälzer Waldverein, and in 2013 a Mariengrotte was added. The chapel is located directly below the Entenbühl summit (901m above sea level) at the wooden summit cross built in 2000.

      Former observation post of the air surveillance network of the 13th Air District Command of the Bavarian Ostmark, built in 1936.
      This building was designed to be splinter-proof as a shelter for the permanent crew. The observation posts were used for airspace surveillance at the border.


      As the position was further reinforced, this post was also connected to the fortress control network of the surrounding combat posts. From there, the reports were passed on to the makeshift network of the border guards with the code name "Georg".

      There was also an observation tower next to it. Preparations for this were made by the 4th Platoon Grzw.Kp. 4/27 in peacetime so that it could be moved as quickly as possible.
      The next observation post that is still preserved is near Mähring.

        At the top of the Duckbühl next to the summit cross is the small, simply decorated Huberus Chapel, which was built from granite from Flossenburg.
