In the opinion of archaeologists, this district has possibly the best preserved sections of Limes in Rhineland Palatinate. Several information panels can be found on a palisade located nearby the cemetery. The Limes runs level with watchtower 2/13 through the middle of the burial mounts. South-west of Dornholzhausen the reins of the watchtower 2/12 and 2/13 is visible. Watchtower 2/13 has been marked with the help of wooden pillars. The Mühlbachtal (valley) invites to take romantic walks in the direction of Nassau (Lahn).
