Tips from the Community
Probably one of the most beautiful sights in Nabburg.

On a hill stands the cemetery church of St. George, featuring a stork's nest depicted in Merian's engraving of 1644. The nest on the church has become, alongside the town's coat of arms, a second symbol of the town. The church tower is Romanesque, while the church itself is Baroque. The high altar, donated in 1759, and probably also the south side altar, were crafted by H.A. Croneiß. On the wall opposite the entrance, besides the pulpit and a crucifixion group, the "Lourdes Grotto," erected in 1904, is particularly striking. https://www.nabburg.de/tourismus-kultur/auf-einen-blick/sehenswuerdigkeiten/#friedhofskirche-st-georg-mit-strochennest

The beautiful town of Nabburg with its city walls and the tower of St. John's Church can be seen from afar. A visit to the old town is worthwhile; there is a lovely walk along the wall, lovely cafes and beautifully decorated historic houses.

Barbara Chapel On a small hill, picturesquely embedded in nature, approx. 500 m from the Reisach power plant is the company's own St. Barbara Chapel. The chapel was built in 1960 by the workforce of the “Jansen” power plant group. When construction of the Reisach pumped storage power plant and its technical systems began in the early 1950s, work came to the area around Trausnitz for the first time. In some cases up to 800 workers found wages and bread. During the construction period from 1952 to 1955, six workers had to lose their lives in what was sometimes very dangerous work. This beloved gem was built in memory of the deceased. A memorial plaque on the chapel commemorates: Hubert Drescher Wenzel Güntner George Jung Hans Frisch Hans Schneider Alois Kirchberger and to its board member, Dr. Dr., who died on October 15, 1958. Ing. Bernhard Jansen.
