Stone crosses near Gossel

Highlight • Monument

The history of the stone crosses:
It is said that the stone crosses are reminiscent of pilgrims who had quarreled after a booze in the tavern and seven of whom were killed in the end. A survivor of the brawl had as punishment to cut the seven crosses from the stone and set up.

Ebanotte Summit

Highlight • Summit

At 518 meters, this point is the highest elevation of the Ohrdrufer Platte and specifically the Gossener Plateaus. Stone walls on the Ebanotte indicate a prehistoric castle site.

Accordingly, great views in all directions.

St. Otmar Church, Dosdorf

Highlight • Religious Site

Dosdorf was first mentioned in documents in 1272. The place is probably even older, since the church can be assigned to the early 13th century. The church is dedicated to St. Otmar. She became famous for being the largest enclosure of the Great Mouse Ear. Each summer, about 3000 animals live in the attic of the church. The church received around 1890 a (new?) Organ by the organ builder Adam Eifert from Stadtilm (Wikipedia).
