A moated castle on dry land? Until the 16th century, the Kammel River flowed directly past this spot. Surrounded by a pond and marshy terrain, Hürben Castle once stood like an island. To prevent the building from sinking into the soft ground, it was built on massive wooden piles in the 15th century. The walls, which widen towards the bottom, also stabilize the structure. That the construction has stood since 1474 is truly remarkable. Today, the castle houses the Swabia District's advisory center for folk music.

The Fugger and Neuffen castles have been part of Weißenhorn's history for centuries. The older castle, today usually called Neuffen Castle or the Old Castle, was built around 1470 under Jörg von Rechberg on the castle hill. Right next to it, Jakob Fugger had the impressive New Castle built in 1514, reflecting the growing influence of the Augsburg trading dynasty. Later, the two buildings were connected by a link to form a single complex. Today, the town hall is located here.

Today, the Hürben Water Castle houses the Swabia District Folk Music Advisory Center. It also houses a gallery, open since 2018, showcasing artwork and exhibitions. The newly designed grounds at Hürben Water Castle were officially opened in 2019, with water from the new fountain system playing a key role.

Great church in Babenhausen in the middle of town

Not far from the Hürben moated castle is the Hürben Synagogue Square. The memorial commemorates the deportation and murder of 14 Krumbach Jews in 1942.

Beautiful castle of Weißenhorn Now the city administration is in it

Nice for practicing technique with steeper sections. The road isn't immediately below, so you can coast nicely.

The Roman Catholic parish church[1] of St. Andreas is a baroque church in Babenhausen in Upper Swabia, Bavaria. The local parish appears for the first time in 1235. In 1315 Heinrich von Schönegg sold half of Babenhausen incl. Church ordinance to Konrad von Rottenstein In 1499, the Lords of Rechberg donated a perpetual Holy Mass on the altar of Our Lady. The choir and the tower substructure have been preserved from the late Gothic church of the 15th century. In 1538 Anton Fugger acquired the rule, which also included the right of patronage over the church in Babenhausen. The church was designated as the family's main church and burial place. In the 16th century a new nave was built and in 1562 the tower was raised by an octagon. After damage during the Thirty Years' War, repairs were carried out. From 1714 to 1717, Michael Stiller was commissioned to redesign the interior in the Baroque style. The sign was added in the middle of the 18th century.
