    Anyone who drives past Essing has missed a lot!
    The location of the market (mentioned for the first time in a document in 976) is impressive between the high, almost threatening-looking rocks on which Randeck Castle is enthroned, and the idyllic, dark water of the Altmühl, gleaming in the sun.

    In the center, which can be reached in various ways, you will find historically interesting buildings, the monastery and rest stops. The "Essinger Kunstweg" on the river bank is also worth seeing, or a visit to the "Blautopf". The wooden bridge in the shape of a Tatzelwurm is already well known.

      Very nice little place framed by the Ludwig - Danube - Main - Canal and a great rocky backdrop. You should definitely see the market with its narrow streets and the houses right on the rock. The "Tatzlwurm" wooden bridge is not far from the village.
