Amöneburg is located about 16 km east of Marburg on a widely visible basalt cone over the Ohm, a left tributary of the Lahn amid the Amöneburger basin, one of the largest contiguous arable land in Hesse, whose only noteworthy elevation is the Amöneburg. This basin separates the Amöneburg from the 5 to 7 km distant ridges Burgwald (in the northwest), Upper Hessian threshold (from north to southeast), Lumda Plateau (also called Vorderer Vogelsberg) in the south and the Lahn mountains in the west. Immediately below Amöneburg is located to protect the downstream located at the Ohm localities of the southeast part of the flood retention basin Kirchhain / Ohm. Attractions The rectangular marketplace was created in this form in the 18th century and in the years 1990 to 1995 as part of the state program "Simple urban renewal" fundamentally renovated and restored according to the original model. Also worth seeing is the "Mainzer Hof" with barn and mansion at Lindauer Tor. The neighboring church is the neo-Gothic basilica of St. John the Baptist. The squat 14th-century church tower with baroque dome stands on its north side. At the southeastern foot of the rock is the historic "Brücker mill". In the course of the Seven Years' War (1756-1763) took place here on 21 September 1762, the lossy "Battle of the Brücker mill" between France and Prussia allied troops instead. In the courtyard of the "Brücker Wirtshaus", directly adjacent to the mill, there is a baroque obelisk, the "Friedenstein", which was erected to commemorate the peace treaty concluded in the tavern. Originally the "Brücker mill", a watermill, was used for grinding grain. Later, it also served as a pumping station to supply water to the Amöneburg (the pumping station can be visited in the mill). The watermill itself is used today for power generation and to a lesser extent for grinding. The buildings of the "Brücker Mühle" and the "Brücker Wirtshaus" now house a health food store and a biorestaurant / café. Around the hilltop runs the largely preserved city wall; a circular path on the outside offers a good view of the surrounding area. Two towers of the city wall have been preserved. The city wall encloses an area of approximately 12 ha and is in connection with the castle Amöneburg. With the "Burghof am Lindauer Tor" and the Wenigenburg two Burgmannenhöfe are preserved. The nature reserve Amöneburg is the second oldest Hessian nature reserve and is opened by a nature trail. Of particular importance is the nutrient-poor flora of the western slope and the slope of Wenigenburg. Information on this can be obtained in the Nature Conservation Center next to the town hall. [3] Significantly outside the core city, but since 1928 on Amöneburger district, the estate Plausdorf Castle is located with parts of the building from the 16th century; It is privately owned and is not freely accessible.
