The cycle path is great to ride on, always along the Werra river.

In the 1950s, lime was burned in this tower-like kiln, built of bricks and rounded to a height of approximately 10 meters. Most of the surrounding quarries are now overgrown. Due to its technical and historical significance, it is a cultural monument worthy of protection.
