Hiking

Fortified church built around 1400! In 1634, the fortified church was conquered by "Croats" and "Imperial troops" in the Thirty Years' War. St. Michael was built in 1619 and has been the Protestant town church ever since. Tours can be booked through the tourist office. It's worth it!!!

The old elementary school was built with Marshall Plan funds in the early 1950s. Today, it houses a special needs school. The name derives from the then district administrator and former mayor of Ostheim vor der Rhön, Dr. Alfred Hauser.
