Theobald Chapel The ruin of the Theobald Chapel stands mysteriously as the oldest structure in Edelfingen, west of the village on the mountain ridge in front of the Theobaldswald. The west gable, which still exists today, is a listed building. It is probably the remnant of a former pilgrimage chapel. Unfortunately, there are no clear sources indicating the origin of this church building. It is assumed that the church, originally about 20 by 10 meters in size and which also had a tower, was built between 1150 and 1350. Perhaps there was once a Celtic refuge castle here that was driven out by the Alemanni in the 5th century. Found on the Edelfingen village website. https://edelfingen.com/ueber-uns/

We cycled along the Romantic Road cycle path for two weeks and admired not only beautiful landscapes but also Germany's most beautiful cities. Rothenburg ob der Tauber, Nördlingen, Donauwörth and Füssen are just a few of these picturesque places. In my blog post I show you what to expect on the Romantic Road and reveal which sights you should definitely visit along the way: https://netreisetagebuch.de/romantische-strasse-radweg

One of the best trails in the Tauber Valley, of which there are unfortunately not too many! Flow trail is an exaggeration, however, it is a hiking trail, partly wide. It is part of the Main-Danube Trail, which has other beautiful trail sections from Sachsenflur to Bad Mergentheim. Be sure to travel in this direction too!
