The Vitus Fountain, dating from 1613, stands in the market square of Vacha in front of the red-timbered town hall. The statue depicts the city's patron saint, Saint Vitus, dressed as a Roman knight. His left hand hangs down, holding a shield that depicts his martyrdom.

The Evangelical Lutheran Church of St. John in Vacha was built in 1172, rebuilt in the Gothic style in 1306, rebuilt after the town fire in 1467, and rebuilt again in 1821 after the Thirty Years' War.

A small but really nice old town.

The memorial commemorates the fallen of the First World War and stands in front of the tower of St. John's Church. It was dedicated in 1929. It was donated by Vacha residents. The lists of donors' names were buried in the memorial's stone base as a testament to the residents' willingness to make sacrifices, unity, and gratitude. However, the names of the donors could no longer be determined. It survived the Third Reich and the GDR era.

The beautiful old tower has been architecturally integrated into a modern residential area. Creating something new while preserving the old – I think it's a great success.

The still visible remains of the wall were part of the border fortifications between the former GDR and the Federal Republic of Germany.

Unmissable on the market square, the Vitus Fountain is a real eye-catcher. It was built in 1613 and renovated in 1818. The round sandstone basin contains a fountain column with reliefs from the life of the city's patron saint and is crowned with the figure of St. Vitus.

Due to its location, the history of the town church is closely linked to the development of the town. A priest named Übelacker is first mentioned in 1172. The foundations of the tower also date from around this time. Of the Gothic church building, which was probably begun around 1306, only the tower top remains today. After a town fire in 1467, the church was rebuilt by the end of the 15th century. During the Reformation, it became a Protestant town church. (Source: Wikipedia)
