In his meditation on the Stations of the Cross with the Holy Father – on Good Friday 2025 in the Roman Colosseum – Pope Francis, who died on Easter Monday of last year, invited us to let Jesus on the cross look at us: + “We go our usual ways and you come towards us. Your eyes look into our hearts. (…) Jesus is your name, and truly, ‘God saves’ through you. The God of Abraham who calls, the God of Isaac who cares, the God of Jacob who blesses, the God of Israel who liberates: in your gaze, Lord, … there is a whole revelation. In your footsteps going out of the city, we see our departure into a new land. You came to change the world: for us, this means changing direction, seeing the good you have left behind, and allowing the memory of your gaze to continue to work in our hearts.” (Pope Francis)

This building, constructed around 1770 using older components, is a good example of the numerous aristocratic country estates that were built in what was then western Hungary after the Turkish threat was averted. Nebersdorf Castle remained in the family's possession until 1939, when it was confiscated by the German authorities from its last representative, Count Ladislaus Niczky, and sold to the Heller industrial family in 1944. In 1952, they sold the castle and estate to the municipality of Nebersdorf. The municipality had the park's magnificent trees felled, the grounds divided into parcels, and sold to local residents. The castle was left to decay. In 1961, innkeeper Rudolf Golubits acquired the already very dilapidated building. He had its exterior restored starting in 1975. The ballroom was also restored to its former glory. The remaining interior rooms, which even housed livestock in the post-war period, were transformed into a tavern with the necessary ancillary rooms. Today, the restaurant is closed again, and the castle stands largely empty. However, it is in good condition and still belongs to Mr. Golubits.

The parish already existed in the Middle Ages. The church was first mentioned in documents in 1419. The current building dates from the 18th century. It was restored in 1826. The church was extended in 1928, restored in 1956 and extended and rebuilt again in 1973/74.

Deutschkreutz Castle in central Burgenland was built in 1625 by Count Paul Nadasdy in the Italian Renaissance style and is located just 15 km from the Hungarian city of Sopron. The castle's layout is a combination typical of the border region, a combination of manor house, castle and farmyard. The four wings form a two-storey complex around a rectangular arcaded courtyard and four low corner towers covered with tent roofs protrude slightly into a former moat.
