The so-called "Celtic Sacrificial Stone" is located in the Malleiten forest area near Bad Fischau-Brunn in the Wiener Neustadt district. The striking rock block features artificial-looking depressions ("bowls"), which is why it is popularly and esoterically attributed with significance as a Celtic cult and sacrificial site. Although ritual use is not unequivocally proven archaeologically, the Malleiten area is demonstrably one of the most important prehistoric and early historical settlement areas in the region.

The Waldandacht in the Wiener Neustadt district is a popular place of worship and a favorite excursion destination in the Föhrenwald near Bad Fischau-Brunn.

Today, the quietly located grotto serves as a spiritual resting place for hikers and as a venue for regular outdoor masses, such as the annual mountain mass.

The Kaiserstein is a historical monument on the Blumberg in Bad Fischau-Brunn in the Wiener Neustadt district.

A distinctive intermediate point directly by the Eisensteinhöhle and a good landmark along the hiking route.
