Ruins near Sachsendorf

Highlight • Historical Site

Archaeological excavations from 1987 onwards uncovered the remains of a Romanesque chapel with a retracted semicircular apse from around 1180/90. Its walls have been preserved up to a height of about 1.5 meters and some of them still have remnants of the original plaster. To the west of it rise the remains of a former residential tower with a wall thickness of about three meters.

Part of the former wooden palisades was reconstructed in the 20th century. Information boards provide information about the history of the building. Source Wikipedia

View of Schönberg Parish Church

Highlight • Religious Site

My second home, Schönberg, has a lot to offer! The Gasthof zur Schonenburg is open again, the carp in poppy seed pan from the Manhartsberg ponds (addictive) are not on the menu until later in the year. The swimming pool has also been open again since May 19, 2021 (current water temperature is still below 20 °, the target is 24 °). The Alte Schmiede is also open again, all the good wines can be tasted (and bought!) Again

Today I felt like going on a scramble tour. Up on the Manhartsberg, then via Eggendorf and Buttendorf down to Gars. There I pack a Nusszuzler as a snack at the Ehrenberger, then we head in the direction of St. Leonhard, later south through Tautendorf. After that I see a nice paved forest path on Komoot that I don't know …
