Blaubeuren Monastery

Highlight • Religious Site

Blaubeuren is not only fascinated by the Blautopf, but also by the monastery that was founded in 1085. Today you can visit the monastery, which was newly built between 1466 and 1501, daily from 10 a.m. to 5 p.m.

Admission costs 5 euros for adults, if you want to see the bathhouse in addition to the monastery, you pay 6.50 euros for the combined ticket. If you are under 18, you have free entry.

Trail to Rusenschloss

Highlight • Trail

Nice way. Good to drive. When it is wet, the few stones and roots can cause a little restlessness. Attention, like all paths here it is a hiking trail, appropriate consideration increases the acceptance for mountain bikers.

Rusenschloss Ruins

Highlight • Castle

The Hohengerhausen ruin, also known as Rusenschloss, is enthroned in the forest high above Blaubeuren and is likely to date back to the eleventh century. It gives you a wonderful view of the Ach and Blautal. Unfortunately, her old age increases, which is why the castle is currently largely closed and under renovation. The view and the grotto just a few meters below are definitely worth the climb.
