The "Kaliberg" in Philippsthal is the spoil dump of the local potash mine. Together with the dump in Heringen, located a few kilometers away, these two sites gave the region the nickname "Land of the White Mountains." Both are a great photo opportunity from any angle and at any time of year.

The church's origins date back to the 15th century. The simple building was renovated several times before its demolition in 1930. The last service took place in January 1930, followed by the laying of the foundation stone for the new building, which was consecrated in August. The hall church, with its steeple extending into the nave and supporting an octagonal tent roof between battlements, is built in the style of a fortified church. The Pietà from the 1735 altar has been preserved. The wooden figures of St. Valentine and St. Pantaleon come from an altar of the Fourteen Holy Helpers from the early 16th century. On the back wall of the galleries is a depiction of St. Christopher. Also visible are statues of Mary, St. Joseph, and St. Elizabeth. (Source: Wikipedia)
