Untersteinbach lies at the confluence of three brooks: Schmerbach in the south and Steinbach in the north flow into the Rauhe Ebrach here.

The historical beginnings

Untersteinbach then became the seat of the administration of the municipality of Rauhenebrach in 1972, when, in the course of the district reform, this new municipality was formed through the voluntary merger of 9 municipalities from three different districts. Untersteinbach today has 650 inhabitants.

Village square with linden tree and parish church
Untersteinbach's main sights are the church tower of St. Vitus, the old linden tree and the Luitpold monument. The late Gothic church tower forms the remainder of a late Gothic complex, probably from the 15th century. The three-axle nave was probably changed in the 18th century and completely replaced by a new building in 1970. All that remains of the historical substance is the sturdy three-storey tower with its belt cornices and the octagonal real helmet, as well as a crucifixion group, which is dated to 1720. The massive old village linden in front of it is 400 years or even more old and a natural monument. In 1911 it was sentenced to death and should be felled: it was "hollow and rotten through and through" and therefore "dangerous to the public". But meanwhile she has survived her death sentence by 90 years and, together with the Luitpold monument and the church tower behind it, forms an unmistakable center of the town.

The large, ancient village linden tree on the church square is impressive! In Untersteinbach there is a traditional bakery called Oppel.
Here you can take a coffee break and enjoy the delicious cakes and pastries.

I would have liked to have known the tip for the bakery before the tour ... ;-)

What is actually remembered is the impressive village linden, a very pretty place!
