In the middle of the Seulingswald you can still visit the foundations of a church that, like the small hamlet that belongs to it, was probably already abandoned in the 13th century. This place has been forgotten for a long time and only exists as a legend in people's memories. Only in 1969 was it rediscovered by an excavation. About 200 meters away from the ruins of the church, there is an ancient pedunculate oak where the village well used to be.

A little further south you will find the stately Hammunde oak, a great natural monument 🌳

Nearby (700 m away) is the stone that "Needle Eye", in the immediate vicinity of the A4. Crawling through a stone or a hollow in a tree goes back to a folk-medicinal healing rite, the sloughing off of an illness or the promised symbolic rebirth. The stone sacrificial box next to the eye of the needle bears the inscription "Ein Opfer Stok vor die Waisenkinder zu Hersfeld 1747.
