According to local tradition, the entrails of the French Marshal Turenne are said to have been buried in the Klauskirchl in 1675. Turenne had fallen in the battle of Sasbach against the imperial general Montecuccoli.

Cycling

The Klauskirchl is always open from 11:00 a.m. to 12:00 p.m. on market days in Achern, i.e. Tuesdays and Saturdays. Nice people from the parishes make this possible and are available for questions. But you can also just sit quietly and enjoy the atmosphere.
