    Here is a memorial stone

      The first Celtic Menhir (also known as Hinkelstein) stands right on the way to the sports field. It consists of gray-yellow sandstone and has a height of approx. 120cm. The stone is slightly rejuvenated at the top. The cross in the upper third was mauled far after its formation.

      The period of origin is not known exactly. But it can be assumed that he was created in pre-Christian times. The first written mention comes from a district description from the year 1732.
