The Kölleda town hall, with its historic building from 1702, dominates the market square of the peppermint town and is one of the region's significant architectural monuments. A watchman was housed in the tower as a tower keeper. In addition, the pillory stone on the west side has been preserved, which still reminds of Kölleda's long city history.

St. Wigbert is a very beautiful village church, even though, like almost all Protestant churches, it is constantly closed.

The embankment is almost as high as the noise barrier and that's in the middle of nowhere. Don't we really have more important places where this is needed? Deutsche Bahn and poor Germany. As an engineer, I have always held our German engineering skills in high esteem. But I'm increasingly finding that key positions are filled by idiots without a job or degree who make impossible decisions and unfortunately are not held accountable for them. 🫣🫣🫣🫣
