The monument was erected by the officers of the 4th, 7th, and 10th Bavarian Infantry Regiments in memory of their fallen comrades. It was inaugurated on the first anniversary of the battle, July 26, 1867. The last battle of the Austro-Prussian War of 1866 took place here on July 26, 1866. The war had already been decided after Austria's defeat at the Battle of Königgrätz on July 3, 1866. Subsequently, the Prussians waged war against Austria's allies. The Prussian army faced the VII and VIII Corps of the German Confederation Army. After some skirmishes against the VII Corps, it withdrew towards the Odenwald forest, and the Prussians were able to capture Frankfurt without a fight. The VIII (Bavarian) Corps retreated to Würzburg, occupying the heights near Roßbrunn. The last battle of the Austro-Prussian War took place near Roßbrunn on July 26, 1866. Peace was concluded on July 27th after a brief artillery bombardment of Würzburg.

Old church - a church (probably a wooden building with a thatched roof) was first mentioned in documents in 1355. New church - in 1870 a church building fund was set up, which financed the extension of the old church in 1892. When it became clear that this could only be an interim solution, a new church building site was acquired on the current site in 1906. The first design for the new church from 1927 is in neo-baroque style. The later implementation as a functional building was probably for financial reasons. The architect was Peter Krammer from Schweinfurt. On June 25, 1928, the first spade was turned for the new church by Pastor Franz Seraph Nimis. Around a month later, the foundation stone was laid by the prelate, cathedral pastor Dr. Alfred Winterstein. On July 28, 1929, Bishop Matthias Ehrenfried consecrated the new church with its two massive facade towers in the neo-Romanesque style. Over the decades, several interior and exterior renovations were necessary - the last one took place for the 75th anniversary of the consecration in 2004. (Würzburg Wiki)

The Sparrow Fountain is located on the Waldbüttelbrunn cultural trail. Towards the end of the 18th century, Waldbüttelbrunn was already known as a roofing village, specializing in slate roofing. Shortly before World War I, the number of roofers in the village rose to 22. In Waldbüttelbrunn, sparrows whistle from the roofs... and are often depicted by local artists. Why the roofing trade was so well developed in Waldbüttelbrunn that the residents were nicknamed "Spoatze" is still not clear. (Archaeological Spessert Project eV - Info)

The Schwemmsee is a wetland biotope and natural monument in the Höchberg forest. The body of water is located in a depression (334 m above sea level) west of Höchberg in the municipal forest. The Schwemmsee is a stop on the Höchberg forest nature trail and can also be reached from the New Cemetery car park about 200 meters to the northeast. The Schwemmsee probably formed in the last ice age from an ice lens in the ground: an ice lens is a raised area of the ground that occurs when there is frost and the ground is cohesive. The reason for this is the capillary effect, which makes it possible to transport groundwater from a depth of up to 50 m to the frost penetration depth (between 20 and 120 cm in winter in Germany). The water collects there, freezes and raises the ground. Since the groundwater is constantly replenished, the ice accumulations and the raised areas above them become larger and larger. The forest pond has been designated a natural monument since March 25, 1938. [2] The protected area has an area of about 1500 m². The lake provides a habitat for numerous animals. (Würzburg Wiki)

was erected in 1998 to mark the village's 1250th anniversary and has a representative function, on a border that is over 1000 years old. It was erected along the cultural path. If you want to know exactly, look a few meters further and you will find the actual three-marker, which is much smaller and less spectacular. (Archaeological Spessert Project e.V. Info)
