Tiefenellern Village

Tiefenellern is a place with about 200 inhabitants. The district of the municipality Litzendorf is located at the beginning of Franconian Switzerland. Tiefenellern is known nationwide especially by the brewery and restaurant Hönig, which offers a good beer and delicious Franconian food.

The small village of Tiefenellern with approx. 200 inhabitants is surrounded by the Gensberg, Stockenberg and the Hofholz. From here the serpentine road built in 1920/21 leads up to the Alb plateau, which is up to 200 m higher. The old, steeply ascending country road runs roughly parallel to this, and is still partly used today as an agricultural pathway.

Tiefenellern was an independent municipality until 1978 and has been part of the municipality of Litzendorf in the district of Bamberg in Bavaria since the municipal area reform.
