The town is undergoing a lot of modernization. There's a large Edeka supermarket nearby, but otherwise, there are few shopping options. The market is mostly just a parking lot, so the quality of the place is rather poor.

A very pleasant bike path that's also wide enough. The views of the countryside are beautiful.

During the construction of the new ICE line, the waste from the nearby Reitersberg Tunnel was dumped here to form an artificial mountain (soil dump). A hiking trail with a gentle incline leads to the viewing platform in a spiral shape. From the top, there is a panoramic view towards Oberlauter and Unterlauter, Rödental, Dörfles, Lauterberg, and Coburg Fortress, as well as the new ICE line from Ebensfeld to Erfurt. The Reitersberg Tunnel, also known as the Reitersberg Tunnel, is a 2,975-meter-long railway tunnel on the high-speed line from Nuremberg to Erfurt near Rödental. The south portal is located near Oberwohlsbach, and the north portal is located near Fornbach, both districts of the Upper Franconian town of Rödental in the Coburg district. The tunnel passes under, among other things, the 508-meter-high Hohe Schwenge to the south and the 457-meter-high Reitersberg to the north. The tunnel has a maximum overburden of 90 meters.

Great landscape, with forest and views!

The school building, dating from 1575, is the second oldest school building in Thuringia. The ground floor is constructed of sandstone with two round-arched portals. A half-timbered upper story was built above it. The stone "school man" on the eastern corner of the "Old School" is interpreted in folklore as a treasure finder and founder of the school building.

Old building of the former inn.

The school building was built in 1575 and later expanded. It is the second oldest school building in Thuringia. A half-timbered upper floor rises above the sandstone ground floor with two round-arch portals and several inscription panels. The "Schulmännle", a late medieval stone sculpture on the east corner of the "Old School", is interpreted in folk legend as a treasure finder and donor of the historic building.
