At the Blutiger Herrgott Memorial

Highlight • Monument

A tragic legend revolves around a Marterl at Aystetten. It's called, "The Bloody God." This legend also mentions the poet Ludwig Ganghofer (1855-1920) in the stories about his childhood:

"If you come from Augsburg on the Swabian Post Road, ... the street sinks into dark spruce forests, which almost did not want to end. In the middle of the forest stood a cross, because 100 years ago a farmer's wife with her daughter was torn to pieces by wolves. "

Clay pits in the Hafnergehau

Highlight • Structure

The picture on the board is a votive picture from the parish and pilgrimage church of Biberbach about an accident while digging clay in Rauhen Forst (behind the Adelsried autobahn chapel). The accident occurred on July 13th 1831 when Andreas Meister was buried in the clay pit and then rescued. As a thank you for it, he donated this votive plaque to the St. Jakobskirche, Biberbach.

Bench With a View of the Autobahn

Highlight • Viewpoint

First. This green bridge is the most beautiful one I know! But who needs a bench with a view of the A8? Employees in the automotive industry?

Sulfur Spring

Highlight • Natural Monument

So in winter this sulfur spring is nothing special and it smells very little of sulfur.
