Parish Church of St. Sebastian, Cornelius and Cyprian Binzwangen

Highlight • Religious Site

The parish church of St. Sebastian, Cornelius and Cyprian in Binzwangen is located directly on the Central Franconian Way of St. James, which leads from Nuremberg to Rothenburg ob der Tauber. The church is open to visitors via the west door from April to October. The Baroque style of the church, whose foundation stone was laid in October 1749 instead of a former church, dominates the landscape on the Upper Altmühl.

Source of the Altmühl (Hornauer Pond)

Highlight • Lake

The Hornauer Weiher, which is considered the official source of the Altmühl, is far away from traffic, quietly on the outskirts. Here you can relax, bathe and grill.

Gasthof Zur Altmühlquelle and Hornauer Pond

Highlight • Restaurant

There are delicious carp and typical Franconian dishes at a fair price 😋. I would recommend a reservation.

Schweinsbach Spring

Highlight • Natural

The Schweinsbach spring is located here by the wayside. It is a little below the path. Caution is advised on the descent due to the muddy ground. The source is located near the European Rhine-Danube watershed. One day the water of this brook flows over the Rhine into the North Sea.
