Coming from the castle ruins, walk around the church - there are beautiful benches that invite you to linger with a beautiful view of the church and the Remstal valley towards Gmünd.

The Baroque pilgrimage and parish church of St. Mary on the Hohenrechberg near Schwäbisch Gmünd was the place of pilgrimage of the Counts of Rechberg and is still parish church of Rechberg and a popular destination of pilgrimages. From the former ancestral castle of the Rechberger to the church, the path is flanked by a Way of the Cross from 1891.

Since the 15th century, a pilgrimage site has been proven on the mountain. Together with the ruin Hohenrechberg and the three imperial mountains, it is a landmark of the region.
