    It's a nice combination: "Old Town Hall and Customs House".

      Old Town Hall (1717) + Customs House (1707) - Lengfeld/Odw.🚴‍♂️

      - The Old Town Hall, located in the middle of the street, was built in 1717 and inaugurated under Mayor Johan Bastian Bauer. The town hall has been a listed building since 1905; it is two-story, with a large granary under a hipped roof. The basement is constructed of solid rubble stone with sandstone corner blocks. The upper floor was built using half-timbering. The basement features a north-south passageway. Until 1973, traffic was directed through the town hall, and only then was a bypass built around the town hall built. From 1974 onwards, the Museum of Folklore of Hesse was located in the town hall. From 1984 to around 1999, the Toy Museum, a department of the Otzberg Museum, was located there. Since 2009, the museum has housed the Odenwald Folk Culture Museum, also directed by Gerd J. Grein.

      - Customs House 🚴‍♂️
      In the immediate vicinity of the Old Town Hall stands the former baroque customs house from 1707 (cellar from 1521), with its striking bay-like porch, which is now privately owned. Road tolls were collected here when goods and other items were imported from neighboring Bavaria.

        Neither an old town hall nor a customs house are racing bike highlights. For cyclists or hikers: yes, for racing cyclists: no.
