You should take this small detour from the Kocher-Jagst cycle path and take a break at the beautiful lake.

Great this facade

Thanks for the info

A reservoir surrounded by dense forest. When the water level is high enough, a cooling dip is perfect.

Ellwangen and surroundings, absolutely recommended for cyclists 🚵

A beautiful, airy square, surrounded by mansions with magnificent facades and the two imposing churches of St. Vitus and the Jesuit Church (now the Evangelical Parish Church) as well as impressive official buildings, forms the center of the large district town of Ellwangen.

On October 3, 1233, the collegiate church of St. Vitus, the landmark of the town of Ellwangen, was consecrated. The building, which dominates the town center, is already the third church on this site, built as a collegiate church for the nearby Ellwangen monastery. According to tradition, the monastery was founded by the Bishop of Langres, Hariolf, and his brother Erlolf in the Virngrund forest in 764. The three-aisled basilica with its three Romanesque towers is considered the most important Romanesque vaulted basilica in Swabia. In the 16th and 17th centuries, the interior was given a Baroque makeover. Nevertheless, the high medieval origins are still clearly recognizable. A Gothic cloister and the Chapel of Our Lady are directly adjacent to the main nave. In 1964, the church was elevated to a minor basilica. The direct connecting door to the neighboring Protestant town church can be seen as a special feature of ecumenism.

The church is worth a visit. It's really impressive
