Ing.-Otto-Theisl-Allee In 2008, the avenue, known as 'Birnenallee' or 'Schlangenallee' or even 'Seufzerallee', was renamed 'Ing.-Otto-Theisl-Allee'. This was done on the occasion of the 80th birthday of Ing. Otto Hans Theisl, who had looked after the community's forest for many years without pay. The unveiling of the plaque with the name "Ing.-Otto-Theisl-Allee" took place in 2008 under Mayor KommR. Alexander Klik.

The Horn District Court is located at Kirchenplatz No. 3 - more precisely in the "Sgraffito House". The sgraffito facade was created using the scratch plaster technique and has existed since 1583. It features the seven planetary gods with their zodiac signs and symbols, allegories of summer and autumn, the ten male ages, various fable scenes, but also allegorical figures, depictions from the Old Testament and a crucifixion and resurrection scene. You should take your time and look at the building not as a court but as a work of art.

Renovated in 1832 on the occasion of the cholera epidemic. In 1866, another cholera epidemic occurred when the Prussian army passed through. In 1928, the column was erected to commemorate those who died in World War I. Built by master stonemason Josef Macho from Engelbrechts in 1680. Renovated in 1739, 1796 and 1834.
