July 2, 2023,Spaziergang mit Anke und Beat durch Seligenstadt ❤

Seligenstadt is always worth a visit. Today we showed the town to our Swiss friends Anke and Beat. Thanks to Komoot, we rediscovered the beautiful moated castle today. Although we've been to the area before, we didn't know it. It's always nice to discover something new in well-known places 🤩.

September 5, 2023,Ausflug nach Seligenstadt

As a Mainzer who loves history, a trip to Seligenstadt was really about time. And this little town on the Main really has a lot to offer.

The first destination was the monastery with the monastery garden. Here you can lose yourself in the world of herbs. A detour to the basilica. Then along the Main. Past the imperial palace.

Seligenstadt has an old town worth seeing and the monastery and its gardens are worth a visit.
The photogenic moated castle is located on a square island in the middle of a pond and is privately owned.
