The Anhausen Wall, an impressive relic, rises solitarily from a green meadow. It is the last visible remnant of a monastery complex dating back to the 14th century and exudes an air of medieval mysticism. The approximately 18-meter-high and 10-meter-wide Anhausen Wall is made of rubble stone and still displays remnants of ashlar, shield arches, and cross vaults. Particularly impressive are the five well-preserved tombs of the von Bebenburg family, set into the interior of the choir.
