Dahlen town hall

Beautiful Baroque village church, designed by George Bähr (who was also the architect of the Dresden Frauenkirche).

Decoratively carved oak pole; landmark in the middle of the Dahlen heath.

There is a traditional series of humorous stories about the seemingly stupid citizens of Schilda (Schildbürger) who have become proverbial (especially cited if local authorities take impractical descisions or enact silly regulations), comparable to the Wise Men of Gotham stories in England.

Beautiful Renaissance town hall with a 6 m—high Roland statue.

Well-preserved late-Gothic to Renaissance castle.
