The ensemble within the 14th and 15th century fortification ring developed from the earliest mention of the present settlement around 800. The town parish church of St. Kilian was founded centrally within it even before 1007. In 1130, the settlement received market rights, a good 250 years later full jurisdiction. From 1422, the town's fortifications were built. In 1473, the town burned down, including the parish church and the town hall. In the Thirty Years' War, in 1684, almost the entire place fell prey to the flames again. The symbol of the subsequent reconstruction is the town hall from 1686/87. Of particular importance is the cohesive appearance of the buildings, which is shaped by the reconstruction after the town fire of 1684. These typically include two-storey front houses, often with gables facing the street, featuring decorative half-timbering on the upper floor. In addition to wall remnants, the Bamberger Torturm gate tower, dating back to the 16th century in its core, has been preserved from the town's fortifications.

When there was still a primary school in Neuensorg, it was the background motif for generations of school starters with their candy bags.

An aquamotec was installed in the lake. It looks like a floating island. Stagnant waters (bathing, quarry, or fish ponds) form closed ecosystems, unlike flowing waters. Here, an aquamotec is used to revitalize and permanently preserve stagnant waters.

I have to correct myself, there was a car there again now, and since it was still very early, I can't say if and when it would open.
