The Hercules Fountain was modeled by Adriaen de Vries between 1597 and 1600, then cast by Wolfgang Neidhardt in Augsburg, and erected in 1602 on the Weinmarkt in front of the Siegelhaus and the Fugger Houses. Until 1809, a complex of buildings stood south of the fountain in the middle of today's Maximilianstraße, extending to Ulrichsplatz and aligning with the facade of the Siegelhaus toward the Hercules Fountain.

The Paardurchbruch near Ottmaring is a remarkable natural phenomenon in the Wittelsbacher Land, near Friedberg in Bavaria. Here the river Paar breaks through the Lechleite in a narrow gate, a geological peculiarity, and then meanders in natural meanders through an original backwater area, which is lined by a natural silver willow forest. For nature lovers and hiking enthusiasts, the circular hiking trail “Zum Paardurchbruch” offers an ideal opportunity to explore this idyllic area. The approximately 9.8 kilometer long route runs mostly flat over asphalted and paved paths, partly also over meadow paths.

Along the way there are stations of a Nordic walking course, a fitness trail and an educational bee stand. The starting point of the hike is Friedberg train station, which makes it easy to get there by public transport. The entire tour takes about 2.5 hours and is also suitable for families with children.
