신스하임‬에서 가장 멋진 ‪20‬개의 산장 & 오두막집

Great hut that invites you to take a short rest, have a snack and catch your breath under protection from rain and other weather conditions.

The way up to Ottilienberg leads along a small steep path.

A new consecration and thus a new building of the chapel is recorded from the period around 1462/65. It probably consisted of the present choir with the beautiful star vault and the tower with antechamber and sacristy extension. A few years later, the current ruined nave was probably added. From earlier times, a "forest brother" or hermit is believed to have lived in the building next to the chapel. During the Reformation, all the sculptures were destroyed and the chapel closed. The "forest brother" became a "forest servant". The chapel survived the Thirty Years' War unscathed. In connection with the expansion of the Eppingen lines in 1695 - 1697, the chapel tower was given the function of a charter and was raised. In the 18th century, pilgrimages to the chapel ruins were again made from Eppingen. In 1771, the chapel was still completely intact, but without a roof. Due to agricultural use, the nave was demolished in the 19th century, except for a remnant in the west. In the last days of the war in 1945, the property next to the chapel was destroyed and the chapel was set on fire. In 1955, the city undertook extensive renovation and restoration of the chapel ruins. (Source: www.kath-eppingen.de)

Super nice for a break 👍

Not spectacular, but large and with plenty of space to sit or shelter.

Once a month - usually on the first Sunday of the month from 11 a.m. to 5 p.m. - the German Alpine Club, Eppingen district group, opens and manages the Ottilienberg tower.

A nice rest stop with lots of information about fauna and flora. Well done. The badger is very impressive. The refuge is maintained by the Unterhof local history association.

Cabins are welcome. Whether for a rest or shelter in bad weather.
