Statue of St. Walburga, Walberla High Plateau in the Ehrenbuerg Nature Reserve, Kirchehrenbach, Franconian Switzerland, Franconia

The Ehrenbürg is one of the most popular destinations in Franconian Switzerland. With its double dome, it is framed by the communities of Kirchehrenbach, Leutenbach and Wiesenthau. The Walberla is the northern peak of the mountain and is at around 513 m.

The Sankt-Walburgis-Chapel is the namesake of the "Walberla-Berg". The chapel was already built in the 17th century. It is dedicated to Saint Walburga. The chapel, which was probably first mentioned in 1350, was originally made of wood. The current chapel was built in 1697 by the Lords of Wiesenthau. The bronze statue of Saint Walburga, which stands in front of the chapel and was inaugurated in 2000, is very striking.

In front of the chapel there is a sculpture of St. Walburga by the sculptor Ernst Steinacker with the inscription "God in your heart".

For me, the Walberla is the landmark of Forchheim and the region, easy to reach, a haven of peace to switch off, many unusual grasses and plants thrive in the nature reserve, so it's important to stick to the paths.

The chapel, visible from afar, was built in the 17th century. At the chapel door you can see inside through the narrow light cutout. Many 🕯️🕯️🕯️ were set up there. The bronze statue "Heilige Walburga" in front of the ⛪ is an eye-catcher. Especially nice during the evening☀️.

Excellent view in clear weather ☀️! The 3rd summit cross was ruined by storms and had to be rebuilt and set up.

Striking rock needles up on Walberla. Can be seen from afar and is a popular photo object.
