The Sotterbach pond in Herdorf (Westerwald) is an idyllic excursion destination and a scenic highlight, particularly known for walks and hikes in the wooded nature of the Altenkirchen district. The place is ideal for lingering and relaxing.

The Peterszeche in the Buchhellertal near Burbach was the largest and most important lead, zinc, and iron ore mine in a historically densely utilized mining area of the southern Siegerland. History and Mining + Establishment: A mining association was founded in 1850 specifically for the orderly extraction of lead ores. + Expansion: Workers laid out the "Oberer Stollen" (Upper Adit) and the over 312-meter-long "Tiefer Stollen" (Deep Adit). The later main shaft (Shaft Leo) reached a depth of 440 meters. + Consolidation: In 1865, the mine consolidated with surrounding smaller mines such as Hoffnungsstern, Viktorsfeld, and Kupferkaute. + Golden Age: At its peak, the mine employed around 300 employees. + Closure: Regular ore production was discontinued around 1906.
