Tourist Attractions
- Maple Castle with round corner towers in the Renaissance style. In the inner courtyard there is an octagonal stair tower with a spiral staircase. The steps are not attached to a column as usual, but to a spindle that was carved in stone. This unusual construction has often been referred to as the 9th wonder of the world. Today the castle is privately owned and unfortunately cannot be visited.
- The castle church is structurally connected to the castle. It emerged from a Gothic castle chapel. It is decorated with two splendid epitaphs from the Lords of Streitberg.
- Finkenau Castle in the district of Finkenau
- Castle Hohenstein in the Hohenstein district with hotel and restaurant, see below.
