Top 5 Caves エスリンゲンアムネッカーでの

There's a small circular hiking trail that takes you along the vineyards from one station to another. It's interesting for children, especially since there's a playground at the top.

Here you can take a lovely hike through the forest and see the Mariengrotte and Marienquelle. https://www.bloggmaus.de/2025/07/wandern-in-wernau-zur-mariengrotte-und-marienquelle.html

Lourdes or Marian grottos usually have one and the same origin: an apparition of the Virgin Mary to 14-year-old Bernadette Soubirous. While she was collecting wood in the forest, a female figure of great beauty and in a shimmering gold cloud is said to have appeared to her in the rock grotto Massabielle near Lourdes: the Mother of God. In the years that followed, Lourdes grottos were built in many Catholic communities. This was also the case in Württemberg. Numerous devotions still take place at these Lourdes or Marian grottos in the month of May, which is the month of Mary.

Quiet place, could be overlooked without signs.

Former castle from the 13th century, which was probably removed around 1535. A similarly astonishing location, such as the Schanbach ruins. Apparently one of the 33% castles that were not hill castles. Source: http://gov.genealogy.net/item/show/object_407109

Great highlight - but very difficult to reach with the MTB with some carrying passages - but it is worth it!

A head-high, iron bear contour stands in front of a modeled cave. Nice distraction on the vineyard tour and well suited to take a break

The well is fed by a small stream. Fresh holy spring water for refreshing but not suitable for drinking.
