Historic Old Town, Weißenburg and City Fortifications with Lakeside Walk The buildings in Weißenburg exude the self-confidence of an imperial city—no wonder, given Weißenburg's rich history. Today, they form the backdrop for diverse cultural events. For five centuries, Weißenburg was a Free Imperial City, subject only to the Emperor; today, buildings such as the city fortifications with their 38 towers and the Imperial City Museum bear witness to its heyday. The city's ancient walls are not only impressive sights in their own right, but also provide space for popular and well-known cultural events: The concert series "Musica Biriciana - Music in Ancient Walls" and the summer festival on the magnificent natural stage of the Bergwaldtheater are part of the "Musical Magic of Franconia" festival. The renowned "Franconian Summer - Musica Franconia" also regularly visits the city. History of a Free Imperial City At its heart, Weißenburg has retained the character of a former Free Imperial City. First mentioned in a document (in Latin) in 867, the Franconian royal court, where Charlemagne is said to have stayed in 793 on the occasion of the construction of the "Fossa Carolina," first became a Salian, then a Hohenstaufen estate, and in the 11th century, a walled city. The existence of the first coat of arms in 1241 manifests the emergence of municipal self-government. By 1296 at the latest, Weißenburg was one of only six Free Imperial Cities in present-day Franconia. Following the example of the Imperial City of Nuremberg, Weißenburg joined the "Confessio Augustana" in 1530. The construction of the Wülzburg Fortress from 1588 and the Thirty Years' War affected Weißenburg in many ways. In 1802, the city lost its imperial freedom, first passing to the Electorate of Bavaria, then to Prussia, and finally to the Kingdom of Bavaria in 1806. Even today, evidence of this remains includes, among others, the following: The largely preserved city fortifications with 38 towers and the only remaining city gate – the Ellinger Tor – with the Hohenstaufen Imperial Eagle in the center and the two city coats of arms from 1241 and 1481 respectively; the Imperial (Old) Town Hall (1470-80); the St. Andrew's Church, the Hospital Church, and the Carmelite Church from the city's great era, when the "wings of the eagle," i.e. the emperor, still nominally ruled over it.

The town hall of the town of Ellingen in the Middle Franconian district of Weißenburg-Gunzenhausen is located in the town center at the intersection of Weißenburger Straße and Schlossstraße. The building with the address Weißenburger Straße 1 is registered as an architectural monument in the Bavarian monument list under the monument number D-5-77-125-111.[1] The late baroque building was built between 1744 and 1747 by the Teutonic Order according to plans by Franz Joseph Roth, a plasterer and master builder. It originally contained the high court administration of the Ellingen Land Commandery. It also contained a pharmacy, a meeting room, offices, a citizens' room and a prison. In 1794, renovations were carried out according to plans by Balthasar Gaab. An interior renovation took place between 1860 and 1861.[1][2] The two-story mansard roof building is made of sandstone and has a bell tower on the roof. A pillory stood at the southwest corner of the building. The building has a central projection and a front staircase on the south side. The Rococo statues on the facade are by Friedrich Maucher and Johann Peter Wagner. After the bombing in World War II, in which the building was partially badly damaged, it was reconstructed in 1950 https://de.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rathaus_(Ellingen)

Long and very high stone gutter. It's impressive what nature has achieved here.

This path on an old railway line is super developed. Practically a highway for the bike 😁

Nearby is the Ellinger Medical Center with a pharmacy, general practitioner, and dentist. Formerly the district court.

Beautiful in every season!
