quiet beautiful place
The source of the Kapellenbach stream is in Eichstätt behind the Mariahilf chapel. 2 karst springs flow into a basin walled with limestone. The spring discharge is 150 to 250 liters per second. In the crystal-clear water of the spring basin, the Eichstätt fishing club breeds trout, which are fished annually on Maundy Thursday

Above the Maria-Hilf-Chapel, it goes about 200 m steeply uphill, the Kapellenbach has its source and after only about 300 m it flows into the Altmühl. You should definitely take a look at this idyllic place with the contained spring and the stream surrounded by limestone walls.
