1000 year old oak in Effeltrich. Worth seeing how it is held together.

The fortified church in Effeltrich was built at the end of the 15th century after Nuremberg troops had robbed the town twice. With a 200 m long wall and four towers as well as a battlement on the south side, Effeltrich has the best-preserved fortified church in Upper Franconia.
