Presteneck Moated Castle

Highlight • Castle

Presteneck Castle, a moated castle in the Stein am Kocher district of Neuenstadt, was built between 1579 and 1583. It is a three-winged Renaissance-era structure. A round tower stands at one corner (northeast). The Lords of Gemmingen (then the local lords of the Bürg district) commemorated their builders with a large, ornate coat of arms above the entrance gate.

From 1976 to 1981, the moated castle underwent extensive renovations, having been left to decay in the preceding years.

Since 1998, the building has housed privately owned apartments. Therefore, the castle is unfortunately not open to the public.

St. Lawrence Church, Neudenau

Highlight • Religious Site

The baroque church was built in 1742 and dates back to a much older Gothic predecessor. The construction of the first church in Neudenau is probably related to the construction of the castle there and the expansion of the town into a city in the 13th century.

The church is located on a hill on the northern bank of the Jagst and offers a wonderful view of the surrounding area. The 44-meter-high, late Gothic church tower is a striking feature of the church1. The interior of the church is rich in stucco work and artistic decorations.

Official cycle path near the River Jagst

Highlight (Segment) • Cycleway

According to the signs, this appears to be the official cycle path. However, the alternative route, which runs directly along the Jagst River, seems to be better. Especially in the town itself, you'll cycle faster than the route described here.

According to the signage on site, Heuchlingen Castle was "first mentioned in possession of the Lords of Heuchelberg in 1222. From 1290-1505 a Ganerbenburg (co-ownership castle). Partially destroyed in the town war of 1450. The Teutonic Order acquired the castle in 1487/1505. Burned down in the Peasants' War in 1525, rebuilt through forced labor. Since 1806 part of Württemberg, a state domain to this day".
The castle is only accessible in the area of the upper, outer courtyard. The rest of the castle is privately owned and unfortunately not accessible to the public.

Oedheim Town Center

Highlight • Settlement

The town hall in the middle of Oedheim, near the church, was the center of the community for centuries. Today it is assumed that it was the administrative building of the Teutonic Order. Through redesign, renovation and additions according to the motto "history meets modernity", the pretty half-timbered house is now used as the town hall.
