Top 5 Caves オーベルンツェンでの

The beer cellars used to be open on weekends 🍺

Nice place for a break, with a wonderful view from the benches.

Carved into the rock in 1860 as a beer cellar for the Schwarzer Adler inn, it now serves as a wintering ground for bats. This ensures that this culturally and historically significant example of Franconian brewing is preserved and serves as a nature conservation site.

Beautifully situated beer garden on the hill above Burgbernheim. It is the perfect place to end the day with a good snack after a hike through the surrounding forests.

Easy to reach above Burgbernbach. Nice beer cellar right next door 😍.

No special skill required.

The Fingals Cave is an abandoned sandstone quarry near Obernzenn. The red reed sandstone from the quarry was used for numerous buildings right into the Aisch valley. Among other things, the city fortifications of Bad Windsheim were built from this stone. After sandstone was no longer mined at this point, the cut in the terrain served as a hiding place for the population during the Thirty Years' War and the Napoleonic campaigns, or as a camp for the military. In addition, the wildly romantic place developed into a popular excursion destination for 18th and 19th century society, especially for the residents of the Obernzenner castles and their guests. Numerous inscriptions scratched into the stone walls, which are up to five meters high, are reminiscent of former visitors and events. In addition to the German-language inscriptions, there are also some in French. One of them refers to the American War of Independence in the years 1776 to 1783. The commemorative inscription for Captain von Erckert, who fell in America in 1777, is probably by Adam Erckert. Captain von Erckert led a company of the subsidy troops of Margrave Alexander von Ansbach. The inscription of a French gunner from 1806, on the other hand, was created when Obernzenn was the Imperial French headquarters for several months.

Great for a break
