Old Town of Füssen

Highlight • Settlement

Fussen has a beautiful historic old town. A walk through the narrow streets and along the city wall is a nice experience. Also, a visit to the monastery of St. Mang or a tour of the castle park are highly recommended.

City fountain

Highlight • Monument

A piece of the Fichtel Mountains far from home: Atop a 2.40-meter-high column of Epprechtstein granite stands the figure of Saint Magnus, the missionary of the Allgäu region, who vanquished the dragon, the symbol of evil, with the sign of the cross, as the fountain figure of Füssen's town fountain. After the neo-Gothic town fountain was demolished in 1965 to make way for car traffic along Reichenstrasse, the Füssen sculptor Alois Vogler created this new fountain. The figure of Magnus was cast in bronze and placed on the column from the Fichtel Mountains. The fountain was officially inaugurated on St. Magnus' Day, September 6, 1968.

Füssen City Pharmacy

Highlight • Historical Site

Unfortunately, you can't find out too much about the building. Only as far as the first known pictures come from 1890. Today's facade was created in 1996 by the painter and artist Edgar Mahler.
If you spend some time you can see some great things on the facade.

Old Town of Füssen

Highlight • Settlement

Füssen has a beautiful old town that not only offers plenty of restaurants, but also some larger and smaller highlights. There are many lesser-known fountains, buildings and much more.

This fountain was designed by an artist from the region and is reminiscent of the Füssen girls' school, where lessons used to be given in house number 14. Like the bottom of the fountain, the streets of Füssen are said to have been paved with pebbles from Lech.
A girl is also sitting by the fountain with a book, which you can look over her shoulder and read along with.

At the western end of the Benedictine monastery of St. Mang lies the parish church of the same name. From the west choir of the church, a section of the city's fortifications runs to the High Castle.

Basilica of St. Mang

Highlight • Religious Site

Originally built as the church of the Benedictine monastery of St. Mang, the basilica has served as the Catholic parish church of the town since the monastery's dissolution at the beginning of the 19th century. The current building, designed by Johann Jakob Herkomer, dates from 1701 to 1717. As early as the mid-8th century, a chapel dedicated to the Savior is said to have been erected here by the church's current patron saint, Magnus of Füssen. Around 815, construction began on a monastery church dedicated to the Virgin Mary, which was expanded into a cruciform basilica in the mid-11th century. Initial plans for a new building arose in 1687 after the church was plundered and damaged during the Thirty Years' War.
