周辺の城・トップ20

The previously somewhat run-down castle complex has been lovingly restored for several years by the “Offensive Young Christians” association, which also uses the buildings. The St. Michael's Chapel is particularly worth seeing. There is a great view from the café's beer garden. Guided tours are available on request.

It belongs to Erbach like many other historical ensembles: the mill wheel on the former castle mill. It stands in an exposed position between the Lustgarten and the market square, on one of the main footpaths in the historic old town. The water wheel was last reinstalled in 1986 at great expense. Now it has been revised again by the association for inner city projects, see https://www.erbacher-plattform.de/Projekte/Muehlrad-und-Muemlinginsel/

Wonderful old ensemble listen in Michelstadt

The landmark of Michelstadt, the town hall is famous. It was built in 1484 by unknown master builders. The date of construction is recorded in Gothic numerals on the town hall itself. Many American visitors find it hard to believe that the building was built eight years before their continent was discovered.

Michelstadt is absolutely worth seeing, not only because of the well-preserved old town and the many half-timbered buildings.

Both the city wall, which dates back to the Middle Ages, and the moat have been preserved to this day.
