May 12, 2025, Rißmannfichte Shelter with Wedding Bench

The tree was a kind of landmark of Heidenberg until it fell victim to a storm in 2019. Wood artist Ulli Hallmeyer from Spalt had implemented the idea of the "wedding bench."

Numerous springs feed about a dozen ponds used for fishing to the west and east of the town, which is otherwise surrounded by dense forests.

The area around Ungerthal was already inhabited by people in the Stone Age, as evidenced by individual finds from a 1998 excavation at the Osterwiese castle ruins, located 700 meters south. A Bronze Age settlement was located 600 meters north of Ungerthal on the Erlberg. At the turn of the millennium, the area was the southernmost extension of the Nariski settlement area.
