During the renovation, cannons dating back to the Franco-Prussian War of 1870/71 were placed on the exterior of the German Gate. One of them was found in the mud during the construction of the Saaraltarm recreation area; the other was purchased. Both cannons were manufactured by Krupp. Source: Wikipedia

The church is located above the town, somewhat out of the way. It is usually closed and only opens for mass on Saturdays. But with a bit of luck you will come across people cleaning or maintaining the building. Then you can catch a glimpse of the interior.
