The Schwalbenthal includes the remains of a former miners' settlement above Vockerode, which suffered severe damage from a landslide in 1907 and had to be cleared. The mountain inspector's house, which later became the Schwalbenthal inn, with an adjoining farm building and the Keudell fountain, has been preserved. About 400 m away is the former cemetery.
From the Schwalbenthal you have a wonderful view of the community and the Meißnervorland and the Werratal.
