Historic Center of Wendelstein

Highlight • Historical Site

Thanks to the railway and the Ludwigskanalhafen, Wendelstein experienced an economic boom in the 19th century.

The trades of the wood turners and metal pushers as well as three large quarry companies made the place an industrial center.

Ludwig-Danube-Main Canal

Highlight • River

The landscape is simply beautiful and even in sunny weather it doesn't get too hot because there are many shady areas.
Not crowded even on Whitsun Sunday.

Place of Silence

Highlight • Structure

The Köhlerfreunde made the largest Meilerplatz in 2003 a "place of silence and reflection". An ecumenical service is held there every year. A nice place to relax and find peace.
