A remnant of World War II is the Wehrmacht cottage.

This Wehrmacht house was built by the Germans at the beginning of World War II to detect and shoot down Allied aircraft with floodlights in the airspace. It also housed the Germans' anti-aircraft guns.
After the war, between 1944 and 1956, a family of 8 lived here. Then a couple lived here between 1957 and 1960. From 1960, the cottage fell into disrepair. In 2015, restoration work was carried out and it was restored to its original condition.
