A brief explanation of the patronage of 'MARY OF THE SNOW', which visitors don't often encounter: This dedication takes us far back in church history to the fourth/fifth century, and geographically from Baden-Württemberg to Rome. On August 5, 363, the so-called "miracle of the snow" occurred at the site where the church of Santa Maria Maggiore now stands. This means that on that day, in the middle of summer, snow lay there in the morning because the Virgin Mary wished to have a church dedicated to her built on that spot. She conveyed this wish in a vision to a wealthy couple – who subsequently initiated and financed the construction – and to the Bishop of Rome, who at that time was Pope Liberius. The Roman church holds the rank of a patriarchal basilica (papal basilica) and is the origin of all churches and chapels with this patronage. In the liturgical calendar of the Catholic Church, August 5th, the feast day of the church's consecration (in the year 432 by Pope Sixtus III), is an optional memorial. Santa Maria Maggiore in Rome was the focus of international attention a few months ago, as Pope Francis, who died on Easter Monday this year, had designated this church as his final resting place.

Very beautiful church

The White Tower, a striking landmark of Biberach, was completed in 1484 after eight years of construction as a late Gothic brick building. With a height of 41 meters and a diameter of 10 meters, it still dominates the cityscape today. The walls, which are up to 2.80 meters thick and taper towards the top, testify to its original function as a defense and watchtower. As a status symbol of the wealthy imperial city of Biberach, the tower received its characteristic white paint job. It formed the end of the medieval city fortifications, which once included 24 small turrets and four city gates. Together with the Gigelturm, it is one of the last remaining towers of the former city fortifications. As part of the "Historical City Tour", you have the opportunity to climb the White Tower every Saturday afternoon and enjoy the incomparable view of the city. Biberach's City Garden was created in 1977 based on designs by the landscape architects Mien Ruys (1904-1999) from Amsterdam and Jo Hagel from Biberach. In summer, the lower level of the garden transforms into a sea of flowers. Among the flowers, shrubs, and a small pond, one can relax on one of the many seating areas. Located slightly higher up and carved into the mountain is the City Garden Rondell, where concerts are held during the summer holidays. The White Tower overlooks the City Garden. Several paths lead up to Gigelberg, past the White Tower and Gigelturm, and over the Hirschgraben.

Good for a long break. The restaurant is something for technology enthusiasts.

nice rest area at the hut with 2 biotopes

美しいマルクト広場、歴史的建造物はきれいに改装されています。しかし、残念ながら市内中心部にはほとんど緑がなく、夏には日陰もなく、座りたい場所もありません。また、ほとんどすべてが自動車交通に開放されており、つまり、駐車中または走行中の車がどこにでもあり...そのため、自転車で市内中心部を探索するのはほとんどの場合ストレスになります。ビベラッハの市内中心部にとっては非常に残念で、失われた機会です。

Biberach has a small city park next to the town hall, next to it a beautiful market square, and historical buildings that have been beautifully renovated. Unfortunately, there is little greenery in the city center, almost everything is open to car traffic and therefore there are cars everywhere, parked or driving... so it can be stressful to explore the city center by bike. It's a real shame and a missed opportunity for Biberach's city center.

You should definitely take your bathing suit with you. A beautiful lake.
