Village through with half-timbered houses and church

The Deutsche Haus which is next to the fountain has the best Currywurst!! It is a must to stop there and eat one. The restaurant/bar has a Cheers vibe to it. It’s a place to stop at for eating and drinking when on a bike tour.

The current fire station was probably built in a prominent location on the town's main square opposite the town hall around the middle of the 19th century, and its four-storey hose tower is probably a later addition. The size of the building can be explained by additional uses, including as a kindergarten. The structural half-timbering of the two-storey building with a hipped roof and wide roof overhang was originally plastered. The church, which is located slightly higher up in the town centre, is said to have existed in the "Upper Village" near Cleeberg as early as 768 and belonged to a parish whose pastor is mentioned in 1472. The defensive Romanesque west tower has loopholes in the upper floors, which were originally only accessible from the outside. In the 17th century it was given a tower room and a crested helmet. The formerly vaulted basement can only be reached through the nave, which is essentially Gothic. This was remodeled in the 17th century, in 1808 and especially from 1865 to 1867, when the three-sided choir was added, among other things. The flat ceiling and the four-sided gallery on cast iron supports as well as the organ by Gustav Raßmann from Möttau also date from this reconstruction phase. Of the other furnishings, the following are worth mentioning: a 15th century wall painting on the north side, uncovered in 1964. An unusually rich inlaid pulpit, which according to tradition was acquired by Pastor Ludovicus Christophorus Medicus from Upper Hesse around 1700. The initials and the figure of the pastor were added when the pulpit was remodeled. A bell from 1545 by Conrat Göbel from Frankfurt. Gravestones from the Baroque period and cast iron crosses from the 19th century are on the outside walls of the church. The Luther oak in the churchyard was planted in 1867 to mark the 350th anniversary of the Reformation.
