All Saints' Abbey ruins

Highlight • Historical Site

The remains of the monastery church form the most impressive part of the monastery ruins. Its cross-shaped floor plan is clearly visible in the still-standing walls, which display architectural styles ranging from late Romanesque to late Gothic.

Baroque garden

Highlight • Historical Site

The grounds of the Allerheiligen Monastery ruins also include a baroque garden with an ornamental pond, located directly on the Lierbach stream. A small museum is housed in one of the monastery buildings, the former servants' quarters. It is freely accessible and admission is free. There, you can see a diagram and a model of the monastery complex.

All Saints Waterfalls

Highlight • Waterfall

I recommend hiking the All Saints Falls from the bottom to the top; they look more spectacular this way, as you always have the falls in front of you. They are particularly impressive in spring and after prolonged rains; after extended dry periods, they are far less beautiful. In winter, the path, if passable at all, is often icy and not without danger. In summer, it is pleasantly cool here.

Memorial of the Black Forest Association

Highlight • Monument

The path leading up to the right (from the direction of the waterfalls) leads to the memorial. This was erected to commemorate the fallen and deceased members of the Black Forest Association.

View of the Allerheiligen monastery ruins

Highlight • Historical Site

This viewpoint offers an impressive view of the historic monastery ruins of Allerheiligen, which lies picturesquely in a wooded high valley of the Black Forest. From here, one can particularly well recognize the striking remains of the former monastery complex, whose open arches and walls blend harmoniously into the surrounding landscape.

Only a small tour today due to the mixed weather. But it is recommended because it is worth seeing. Great nature and beautiful hiking trail.

We started from the upper parking lot. First of all, the path leads past the monastery ruins. The ruins are currently being restored (October 2021). To the right of this is a chapel a little higher up. Below the ruins of the monastery and the buildings, a path leads past a memorial, for me this has a Greek touch. Then …

A pretty ensemble of waterfall and monastery ruins formed the backdrop for our first short lap today. More of a walk than a hike, starting from a large car park, the path runs comfortably up to the waterfall, which was made accessible by ladders and paths around 1840. The fact that the monastery ruins are so well preserved is due …

A large parking lot on the street and a huge wooden gate tell the visitor right from the start that there is something special to discover here. How good for us that the parking lot is almost empty in the morning and we are apparently among the first few visitors to spread out well in the area. A paved path …

Before lunch we made a detour to the waterfalls: A beautiful narrow valley, opened up by a narrow path with many steps.

Once at the top, the Allerheiligen monastery ruins welcome you, with service at the weekend.

In order to conquer the Allerheiligen waterfalls up to the ruins of the monastery and back down again you need a good physical condition and sturdy shoes.
