The Burgwall Quadenschönfeld is the remains of a Slavic hillfort dating from the 8th to 9th century, set on a natural rise at the northern edge of the Schlaven valley, protected on three sides by steep slopes. The site includes an outer bailey with two still visible gate openings and a main bailey of similar size, both enclosed by earthen ramparts reaching up to 4 metres in height. A ditch up to 7 metres wide, still partly filled with water, runs along the outer bailey's rampart. Access is on foot, along an old railway embankment that crosses what used to be a lake.
