Former abattoir (Wasenmeisterei) near Oberpfaffendorf

Highlight • Historical Site

Shortly before Oberpfaffendorf, the old masking shop is hidden. This little-respected professional group worked in secret away from the villages and was responsible for the removal of animal carcasses.

Oberpfaffendorf Black Cattle Pastures

Highlight • Settlement

A quiet village, here you cross the Thaya on a bridge. And you always see these dark cattle here, either out on the pasture or in the free-roaming barn.
