    Hiking

    In the historic tanners' quarter is the passage "Schipkapass", a very prominent place in the old town and is located next to the Queich. Here is a narrow passage that went through the former city wall, it was so narrow that could only be passed with a wheelbarrow Schipka.

    Hiking

    Behind the second functioning watermill, the Queich flows out of Annweiler under the remains of the old city wall. The small passage next to it is known as the Schipka pass. But why nobody knows anymore. The real Shipka Pass is actually in Bulgaria in the Balkan Mountains, where the decisive battle between Russians and Turks for the liberation of Bulgaria took place in 1877.
