    On Bahnhofstrasse stands the partially restored post milestone dating from 1724. The letters A and R, as well as the coats of arms on it, refer to Frederick Augustus, known as Frederick the Strong, Elector of Saxony (1694–1733) and King of Poland (1697–1733). Parts of the original post milestone are on display in the town hall.
