Old Town Hall Weinähr

Highlight • Historical Site

Over 500 years old town hall (15th century) and thus probably the oldest building in the town. Was restored in the 90s.

May 26, 2022,Von Nassau über die Hohe Lay nach Obernhof

Hello from the 37th week of pregnancy! It's been pretty quiet here lately and it's likely to stay that way for some time to come. Instead of traveling around the world, I'm looking for the beauty in the little things on my favorite walks on my doorstep (which you all already know here) and I'm grateful that even in the …

I forgot to start Komoot again on the way back from the restaurant, so around 1.2 km still have to be added to the tour. Despite the rain on the way back, a very nice tour and the body was challenged.
