Eichstätt Old Town

Highlight • Settlement

The baroque town of Eichstätt is definitely worth a tour. Above all, the cathedral and the Willibaldsburg with the Jura Museum are well worth seeing. Among other things, a famous fossil of Archeopteryx is on display at the castle.

Frauenberg Chapel and view over Eichstätt

Highlight • Religious Site

In 1720 the prince-bishop Johann Anton I. Knebel von Katzenellenbogen (1705-1725), increasingly frail and suffering from gout, had a statue of the Madonna erected to the east of his residence, Willibaldsburg.

Bench and wooden bridge by the forest pond

Highlight • Lake

Especially on hot summer days, this bench with a small (!) Lake in the forest is ideal for a short rest. After the steep ascent out of Eichstätt, this is sure to be a welcome and shady opportunity for many.
