The municipality of Kottenheim , with a population of around 2700, is known for mining Basatlava and Tuffstein until the late 1980s. Testimonies of this time include the "Kottenheimer Winnfeld". Today, the inhabitants benefit from an intact infrastructure and a lively club life, with popular events such as the "Kröbbelchesfest".

A carnival club is a community of people who come together to celebrate and organize the carnival. These clubs are often active in cities or regions and play an important role in planning events, parades, and festivities during carnival time. They promote the traditions associated with the carnival and provide their members with the opportunity to actively participate in the celebrations.

The community of Anschau has around 300 inhabitants. The eye-catcher in the center of the village is the St. Agidius Church, built in 1755 and the fountain of the same name. Some historical buildings have been extensively restored, such as the old hunting lodge and the "Pohlse Haus". The Mimbach district also belongs to the municipality of Anschau.
