At the roundabout at Münchner Straße - Hohenbergerstraße there is a memorial in the middle of the circle to commemorate the Leutershausen - Wiedersbach - Bechhofen railway line that ran here. It was known under the name "Bockerla - Dampfeisenbahn". The 6.5 long stretch of the Ludwigsbahn was opened on December 7th, 1835. In 1966 passenger traffic was discontinued, in 1970 freight traffic. The tracks were then dismantled.
