The small variant of the big namesake. Road cyclists have always tried to impress each other regarding riding performance. The saying was: We can connect Frankfurt, Heilbronn, Ingolstadt in one day with a bike tour. For the big role models, there are villages in Middle Franconia with the same name that are not far apart. You can still add Nuremberg as the original to make the impression perfect. But then this should probably be classified more in the category of "fish tales", right?

The exterior is currently being renovated. It's not really worth stopping by at the moment.
