In the past, guild trees were used, on which the various guilds of a town each displayed a picture panel. Today, maypoles feature a variety of representations. What makes this maypole at the Mod-e-on, the event center of Marktoberdorf (MOD), special are the figures instead of picture panels. These figures depict not only the guilds but also companies, athletes, and the popular Marktoberdorf carnival parade, and since 2023, they have been made entirely of metal. Previously, the figures were made of wood and therefore not weather-resistant.

A beautiful forest with some lovely views of the Alps.

Farm track between Fechsen and Marktoberdorf next to the railway line, easy to drive

A real speed route for a road bike. Especially with a tailwind 😍😂.

Several myths and legends surround this chapel. One dates back to the 17th century. It is said that a child once got lost in the forest and fell asleep, exhausted, beneath a fir tree. The infant Jesus appeared to him in a dream and showed him the way home. Since then, the fir tree has become a destination for many concerned parents, who hung crosses, votive tablets, and children's clothing there. In 1881, the first small wooden church was built on the square. The fir tree still stood as a stump in front of this chapel. But after two decades, the wood of the structure had become so rotten that it had to be removed and the chapel rebuilt. The new construction was the result of a vow by an "Oberdorf" mother, who also persuaded other families to join the community.

This castle was built in 1424, and a new building was constructed between 1722 and 1729, much of which has survived to this day. In 1984, the Bavarian Music Academy moved in.
