The Narrenmühle "fools´ wind mill" is domicile for a Carnival society: Narrenakademie "fools´academy" with the moon as coat of arms. This is one of the oldest Carnival societies worldwide, dating back to 1554. The fool´'s academy provides diplomas as "doctor humoris causa", e.g. for Salvador Dalí, Neil Armstrong, Konrad Adenauer, current politicians or artists and local persons. A small museum shows curiosities and historic exhibits.
Some parts of the old city fortifications (wall, watchtower, ditch).
As curiosity, the citizens donated a lifesize bronze statue in 1980, remembering a man emptying slurry pits in the outskirts before 1890 as "an early example of outstanding service orientation". The place for this statue is more prominent than emperor Wilhelm's statue.
