In the center of the local community is the beautifully landscaped castle park with a small castle and a pond with a grotto pavilion.
The park goes back to the Count von der Leyen.
Later, Joseph Clemens Lenné had the park rebuilt with his brother Peter Joseph and ran a plant breeding business.
In addition to the old trees, baroque pavilions, the so-called castle around 1750 and the grotto pavilion with pond, have been preserved. In the small castle, an exhibition shows the changes in institutional psychiatry since the 19th century and exhibits on the history of the village.
