Coming from the Aussiedlerhof, it is worth strolling along the meadow to the left of the bridge. If you follow the Antrift here, you will reach a truly quaint little floodplain area.

In late autumn, the bench is removed by the municipality so that it does not suffer damage from the weather in winter.

The Katzenberg, also known as "Chattenberg," was once a place of execution. An information panel provides information about the history of this place. The panoramic view of Seibelsdorf is picturesque and beautiful!
