Hiking

From an Allgäu farming village to the "Little Paris of Hat Fashion": Straw hats were once produced in Lindenberg and exported as far afield as the USA and South America. It's not for nothing that the town was once nicknamed the Hat Capital of Europe.

On this listening tour, you'll learn interesting facts about the hat boom that was felt here around 1900. A visit to the Hat Museum is a worthwhile way to get into the mood for the tour. The tour continues through the tranquil town center with its magnificent St. Peter and Paul Church.

The tour is short, allowing you plenty of time to learn more about Lindenberg's exciting history. A coffee or ice cream break is also included.

HATS OFF! Worthwhile leadership. People who cannot stand for long are allowed to take a chair with them at the cash register.
