You can have a great breakfast here. You can also sit outside on the side street. And, of course, they also serve coffee specialties...

The church is somewhat hidden in the city center. Very beautiful both inside and out, and above all, well-maintained. The crucifixion group is on the side facing the pedestrian zone. There are paid parking spaces all around, which are a bit overpriced.

Here at the bridge over the Elsenz, the water level is always relatively low. You can usually see a few ducks here, which is fun for kids. About 20 meters further toward the city center on the right is the ice cream parlor ROMA. Highly recommended.
