Tips

October 26, 2020

Cycling

Here you cycle along the Urftsee with a view of the former NS-Ordensburg Vogelsang. The place reinvents itself today and sets an example against the Nazi crimes. As an “International Place”, Vogelsang today stands for tolerance, diversity and peaceful coexistence. There are guided tours, events and exhibitions on historical and political education. More information: vogelsang-ip.de

Standing here makes you want to drive over there. But there are still 18 percent.
Vogelsang Castle is worth the effort though.
