The historic town hall is located in the middle of the pretty district of Marköbel. The building was extensively renovated a few years ago.

This farm is something special. It has now been expanded to include a farm café with Sunday brunch. The farm shop has all the products that a farm cheese dairy produces. I particularly like the camembert made from goat's milk. The products are sold on a trust basis. Chilled drinks and ice cream are also available for a break. Hohe Strasse is not possible without Kapellenhof. Highly recommended
