Böhmertor, Freistadt

Highlight • Monument

The listed Böhmertor is a medieval city gate in Freistadt, Upper Austria. The Böhmertor is a huge gate tower and used to be called the Spitalstor because the Freistadt hospital stood in front of the gate next to the Church of Our Lady until the 15th century.

Freistadt

Highlight • Settlement

A castle, a wonderfully lively marketplace, many colorful refreshment stops. Freistadt is always worth a trip. And if you are only passing through during your north forest ridge hike, it is still worthwhile to plan a little time for sightseeing!

As small and dreamy as the village is, St. Peter has a very special sight to offer: the former Gothic cemetery church of Freistadt, which is slightly elevated and to the west of the city.

Teufelsfelsen (Devil's Rock) with Sculpture

Highlight • Natural Monument

The legend says that the devil tried to dam the Feldaist in order to drown the people who had settled along the river with the water. But the giants who lived here wanted to annoy the devil and destroyed the piled-up stones night after night. This enraged him so much that he turned one of the giants into a mighty rock and threw it onto the shore. But the other giant grabbed the devil by the horns and didn't let go again, until finally both of them disappeared with a mighty roar and a stench of sulfur and never appeared again.
But the devil's rock is still here today and on some full moon nights there is an eerie rumbling in the area and then it smells of sulfur for days. 🙄

I'm missing about 1km (car and actual start).
Very relaxing hike.

Had to go out today and do my house round at -3 degrees ☀️🚶

A leisurely hike in my hometown was on the agenda today, and we explored two small hills that are unknown to most of Freistadt's residents.

Following pleasant paths, we reached Petringer Berg and continued on to St. Peter, where we visited the beautiful branch church with its Calvary Chapel.
