There is a monument to the Via Nova and a bench to relax on.

The VIA NOVA (Latin for 'New Way') is a newly created European pilgrimage route in July 2004 that does not have a specific destination, but rather combines old pilgrimage routes.

The VIA NOVA connects Weltenburg/Kelheim, Bogen in Bavaria, Příbram in the Czech Republic and St. Wolfgang in the Salzkammergut with three main routes and a few side routes.

On September 5, 2010, the Czech Republic was connected to this pilgrim route network for the first time with the 250 km long section from Vilshofen to Příbram. This path is not new either, but goes back to an old pilgrimage route, which has hardly been used since the Second World War and has only been used more regularly by pilgrims in recent years.

In 2014, the European Pilgrimage Route was extended via Aufhausen (LK Regensburg) to Weltenburg Kelheim.
