War Memorial Chapel on the Galgenleite

Highlight • Religious Site

The war memorial chapel on the gallows lead high above the roofs of the city of Eltmann was built in 1953 to commemorate the fallen and missing in the Second World War. A way of the cross leads from the city up to the chapel. The chapel is open to the Main Valley on a parabolic floor plan in a scenic location and with an open bell tower.

Cross near the Oberschleichacher Käppeles. Next to it is a bench around a tree. A nice place.

A slightly different bench than the usual one. This way you can enjoy the view while gently rocking.

View of Eltmann

Highlight • Viewpoint

This lounger swing is located a little below the Wallburg. You can lie down, rest, swing or just enjoy the view of the beautiful Main Valley and Eltmann.

Yes, the stairs are a bit strenuous, but they are worth it, always a great view of the Main
