The path leads and ends in the Schafhof, from where you have a view of the monastery complex. The Schafhof is the oldest Grangie in Maulbronn. There, after moving from Eckenweiher to the current location in 1147, the monks quarried the first sandstones for building the monastery and church. The rubble stone edge of the former quarry can still be seen today. After abandoning the quarry, the monks built a farm yard, which was originally surrounded by a wall and is still partially visible today.

Nice path above the monastery, with a nice view of the facility on the descent
