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 The chapel, which was probably first mentioned in 1350, was originally made of wood.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.

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☀️.

The way to the summit via the side paths is worth it, not so many people, nice view. Paths here are often muddy.

The spring flows out of the rock and gathers through a small bridge to the Lillach. The little hut opposite invites you to rest and offers protection in the rain.

The sinter steps or sinter terraces of the Lillach are really well worth seeing, they are a really impressive geological formation. Various circumstances must come together for these stages to arise. What is important is a calcareous soil, as is typical in the karst landscape of Franconian Switzerland. Falling precipitation in the form of carbon dioxide-containing rain seeps through the limestone and dissolves part of the lime it contains through a chemical reaction. As a result, the Lillach accumulates an above-average amount of lime. Certain mechanical processes in the course of the river stop this process in that the carbon dioxide is dissolved again and the lime precipitates. The result is deposits of fine lime needles on the plants growing in the water. Further information on Lillach and the sintering stages can be found in the Wikipedia article at https://de.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lillach.

The Walburgis Chapel, which was first mentioned around 1350 and was built in its present form in 1697, probably gave the mountain its name. The bronze statue of Saint Walburga, which stands in front of the chapel and was inaugurated in 2000, is very striking.
