Historic Old Town of Pappenheim

Highlight • Historical Site

The statue of the equestrian general Gottfried Heinrich zu Pappenheim stands opposite the old castle in Pappenheim. Gottfried Heinrich Graf zu Pappenheim was a general in the Thirty Years' War who fought for the Catholic League and the Habsburg Emperor under Wallenstein's command. The well-known, originally positive saying goes back to him: "This is how I recognize my Pappenheimer".

Rest area at the Hochzeits-Acker

Highlight • Rest Area

Nicely located rest area with a wonderful view of the "12 Apostel" rock formation. Lounger, information boards and a bench in the shade, great place for a break. The wedding field is an unusual wedding location (legally valid by the mayor) or a great place for a photo shoot. solnhofen.de/ein-neuer-ungewoehnlicher-trau-ort-bereichert-seit-juni-2019-das-altmuehltal

View of the 'Twelve Apostles' rock formation

Highlight • Natural Monument

These rocks are a scenic highlight in the Altmühltal Nature Park. From the cycle path, you can see how the impressive rock formation, the Twelve Apostles, stand vertically on the riverbank.

The rock towers are made of sponge limestone, a type of rock that weathers more slowly than the surrounding White Jura. For this reason, the Twelve Apostles have formed over the years out of the surrounding slopes and are visible today as this beautiful rock formation.

A church made of willows in the countryside. It's worth a visit. Nature and contemplation complement each other perfectly.

Willow Church Pappenheim

Highlight • Religious Site

The Willow Church in Pappenheim is an impressive structure, if you can call it that. After all, this open-air church consists only of a metal frame over which plants climb. In summer, the church is beautifully green. The plants allow the church to grow and change every year.

It was planted by the Evangelical Youth of Bavaria during the Easter holidays of 2007 and will soon celebrate its twentieth anniversary.

The Willow Church can be visited at any time and offers a lovely setting for a rest.
