Historic Old Town of Pappenheim

Highlight • Historical Site

The statue of the equestrian general Gottfried Heinrich zu Pappenheim stands opposite the old castle in Pappenheim. Gottfried Heinrich Graf zu Pappenheim was a general in the Thirty Years' War who fought for the Catholic League and the Habsburg Emperor under Wallenstein's command. The well-known, originally positive saying goes back to him: "This is how I recognize my Pappenheimer".

View of the 'Twelve Apostles' rock formation

Highlight • Natural Monument

These rocks are a scenic highlight in the Altmühltal Nature Park. From the cycle path, you can see how the impressive rock formation, the Twelve Apostles, stand vertically on the riverbank.

The rock towers are made of sponge limestone, a type of rock that weathers more slowly than the surrounding White Jura. For this reason, the Twelve Apostles have formed over the years out of the surrounding slopes and are visible today as this beautiful rock formation.

Willibaldsburg, Eichstätt

Highlight • Castle

The Willibaldsburg castle towers high above Eichstätt and is visible from afar.

The castle complex was built in 1355 by Bishop Berthold Burggraf von Zollern and served as the episcopal seat until 1725. In the 17th century, the castle was converted into a representative residence.

Today, the castle houses various museums and natural science collections. There is also a beautiful castle garden, and the "Bierschänke" takes care of refreshments.

The Römerbrunnen is an idyllic and popular excursion destination in the middle of the forest under large trees. Seating sets and a barbecue area are available. No drinking water. Around the Römerbrunnen there is a 4.2 km forest adventure trail with twelve adventure stations. The barbecue area at the Römerbrunnen in the Weißenburg city forest is the focus of local recreation for visitors to the city forest. Numerous legends circulate about its importance in Roman times. The spring version, however, dates from the 16th century.
