Approaching the ruins from Fleschützen, it was quite unsatisfying. Access to the inner castle is blocked, and the surrounding walls are overgrown. It's impossible to get a clear view. The ruins are apparently neglected and have been left to their natural state. The sign also suggests this. A shame.

This castle was built in 1424, and a new building was constructed between 1722 and 1729, much of which has survived to this day. In 1984, the Bavarian Music Academy moved in.

Today it houses a music academy with boarding school and starting point for a walk through the Kurfürstenallee

The former Prince-Bishop's Palace, Marktoberdorf What was once the official residence of the bailiffs, the episcopal provosts, and later the hunting lodge of the Augsburg prince-bishops is now the seat of the Surveying Office and the Bavarian Academy of Music. The beautiful four-winged palace was built between 1723 and 1729 and again in 1761 by Johann Georg Fischer.

A good place to live - the ancient Romans already knew that! The first traces of settlements go back to the Celts, followed by the Romans in 15 BC. The remains of a villa rustica, a Roman estate, can be admired in the impressively designed Roman baths in Kohlhunden. The Alemanni came during the great migrations, and the Franks followed in the 8th century. Oberdorf's favorable location prompted the Franks to build a royal court here. At this time, the monk Magnus evangelized the Allgäu and Oberdorf also became Christian. In 1299, the prince-bishops of the Bishopric of Augsburg took over the rule, which was to last until secularization. It was also the prince-bishops who built a castle in Oberdorf as a residence, which was first mentioned in documents in 1424. In 1453, Emperor Friedrich III granted Oberdorf the right to hold a market - an important impulse for the development of the town. In 1722, the castle was renovated in the then-current Baroque style and used by the prince-bishops as a popular hunting lodge and summer residence. The master builder was Johann Georg Fischer, a native of Oberdorf. In 1732, construction began on the magnificent church of St. Martin, and in 1774 the last prince-bishop of Oberdorf, Elector Clemens Wenzenslaus, had the linden tree avenue laid out.

I think the avenue is the highlight

The trails are sometimes very adventurous, but in a very beautiful area. It is safer to bike in dry weather. Unfortunately, a lot of trees block the trail, so you have to lift the bike more than you can ride.
