A remarkable work of art made of stone by the artist Hanspeter Widrig stands at the beginning of the Altmühl crossing. Jakobus is part of the "Art on the Lakes" campaign. The work of art: Light-footed, lively and with wide strides, Jakobus crosses the watershed between the Main and Danube on the way to Santiago de Compostela, his gaze fixed on the pilgrim's cross.

In the area of the new Altmühl bridge and the Wehrs Ornbau stands the sculpture of the apostle James, who has special historical significance for the city of Ornbau. Worth seeing artwork.
