The neoclassical nave, built between 1838 and 1840, has five window axes, but its floor plan dates back to the Middle Ages. Of the medieval predecessor church from the 11th century, which was given a Gothic style in 1486, only the choir tower remains. A Baroque cap was added to it around 1912 to house the clock and belfry. After the nave was built, parts of the flat-roofed choir on the ground floor of the tower initially served as a sacristy. A Gothic tabernacle from 1486, set into the wall, has also been preserved there. In 1854, the church received an altar from 1716, which had previously stood in St. Michael's Church in Fulda. It was installed under the chancel arch. It was removed during a renovation around 1941. During this renovation, an external sacristy was added. In 2008 and 2009, the interior was the primary focus of the renovation. The renovation project focused on redesigning the altar area. The renovation was completed with the consecration of the new people's altar on January 17, 2010. (Source: Wikipedia)

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)

From this rest area, located almost at the highest point of the Aschenbach Cycle Path, you have a magnificent view up to the high Rhön Mountains. The Wasserkuppe and Milseburg are in direct view. The Aschenbach Cycle Path begins in the small village of Morles, picturesquely situated on the well-known Nüsttal Cycle Path. Here, cyclists are greeted by a peaceful, natural setting with rolling hills, well-kept half-timbered houses, and the soothing murmur of the Aschenbach stream, which gives the path its name. The path first passes through the charming village of Mittelaschenbach. Then it continues to the higher-lying village of Oberaschenbach. The climb is rewarded with magnificent views of the surrounding valley. From up here, the view sweeps over the gently rolling hills of the Rhön, which changes color depending on the season. The cycle path finally ends after a rapid, winding descent in the picturesque village of Haselstein. This route not only offers a pleasant bike ride for young and old, but also a wonderful opportunity to fully enjoy the rural beauty of the region. Speaking of enjoyment, after completing this tour, you'll have truly earned a stop at the Café Am Rosenbach in the village of Haselstein. Many people know this café simply by its name "The Café with the Large Slices of Cake."
