在康(kang)王墳山坡前(qian)(qian)，修有(you)(you)康(kang)陵(ling)(ling)寺(si)，據當(dang)代村民講，康(kang)陵(ling)(ling)寺(si)建于漢(han)(han)朝，距(ju)今兩千多年。乾隆四(si)十年（公元一(yi)七七五(wu)年）重修，佛(fo)殿門前(qian)(qian)有(you)(you)壯觀的大(da)匾，宏偉的大(da)山門，有(you)(you)和(he)尚撞鐘的鐘樓(lou)，有(you)(you)燒香(xiang)火(huo)的香(xiang)檀(tan)。分東(dong)西二(er)廂(xiang)，東(dong)廂(xiang)住(zhu)和(he)尚，西廂(xiang)住(zhu)尼姑，分前(qian)(qian)后(hou)二(er)殿，前(qian)(qian)殿三間(jian)，塑有(you)(you)四(si)大(da)天王，八(ba)大(da)金(jin)剛像，惟妙惟肖.后(hou)殿五(wu)間(jian)，塑有(you)(you)西天活佛(fo)，十八(ba)羅漢(han)(han)，形(xing)象逼真。此廟興盛于世，聞名百里，前(qian)(qian)來(lai)降香(xiang)祁福者眾。可惜在一(yi)九四(si)一(yi)年被土(tu)頑李德元部拆(chai)毀。
六曲(qu)山(shan)古墓群(qun)在1978年被公(gong)布為省級重點文(wen)物保(bao)護單位。2001年又被國務院(yuan)公(gong)布為國家級重點文(wen)物 保(bao)護單位。
