The baroque pilgrimage and parish church of St. Maria on the Hohenrechberg near Schwäbisch Gmünd was the place of pilgrimage for the Counts of Rechberg and is still the parish church of Rechberg and a popular destination for pilgrimages. From the former ancestral castle of the Rechbergers to the church, the path is flanked by a Stations of the Cross from 1891.
There has been evidence of a pilgrimage site on the mountain since the 15th century. Together with the Hohenrechberg ruins and the three Kaiser mountains, it forms a landmark of the region.

Yes, it's just a church...
But it's definitely worth pedaling up for the view ;-)

Small but beautiful pilgrimage church located on the plateau of the Hoher Rechberg. A magnificent view of the surrounding area and an inn to strengthen your physical well-being reward the steep ascent.
