The Wiesenfelden cave is a small granite rock formation, on the top block of which a sacred image stands in a masonry niche. The medium-grained granite with large potassium feldspar crystals shows "wollsackverwitterung" (sack-like weathering). Below the rock formation by the road, there is an approximately 40 m long underground cavern (built in 1838), the former ice storage cellar of the local brewery, with beautiful exposures of granite with dyke rocks and many xenoliths (bring a flashlight).
