Knight's Cellar Thundorf

Highlight • Restaurant

The Knights' Cellar in Thundorf (built in 1528) still bears witness to the history of the former knights' school, where young noblemen from near and far were instructed in religion and the fine arts.

The Knights' Cellar opens its doors annually during the Thundorf village Christmas market. The romantic atmosphere contributes to a special experience for visitors.

The parish, one of the smallest in the district, can look back on a long history. Lutheran sermons were preached in Thundorf at least as early as 1520. This continued unhindered until 1676, when the rule of Thundorf changed from the Protestant von Schaumberg family to the Catholic von Rosenbach family. The subsequent persecution significantly reduced the size of the congregation, and even today, in times of good ecumenical cooperation, it numbers only about 60 members.

The church tower was built in the 15th century. It had a bell tower until 1870.

The nave was built south of the tower. There are differing accounts regarding the year of the nave's construction. Some sources cite 1699, while others suggest 1727. The church interior was remodeled in 1848.

From 1680 to 1847, the Protestant parsonage was located in the neighboring former knights' school.

The church's interior underwent restoration in 1975. In 2001, the pulpit and ambo were restored. During further renovations in 2005 and 2006, the pulpit was repainted and the interior walls were redesigned. At the same time, the church exterior was painted white.

At the edge of the forest stands a bench made of pallets and an image of Mary. From here there is a great view towards Thundorf and Stadtlauringen – the Schweinfurt Uplands.

Way of the Cross Gänseleite Theinfeld

Highlight • Religious Site

The Kreuzberg is located on the outskirts of Theinfeld in the "Gänseleite" forest, past the cemetery on the Dürrnberg. On the base of the high cross is the inscription: I lift my eyes to the mountains, from where help will come to me.
