View of Weltenburg Abbey

Highlight • Viewpoint

This viewpoint is the best from which you can see the monastery in a spectacular way. Looking down into the valley from the cliff 👀 is always something special and will be remembered.

Hall of Liberation, Kelheim

Highlight • Monument

The Befreiungshalle, which towers over Kehlheim on the Michelsberg, can be seen from afar. Although it is not directly on the Panoramaweg, since this starts or ends directly in Kehlheim, you should take some time to visit the monumental memorial.
