Schmalzturm (Beautiful Tower), Landsberg am Lech

Highlight • Monument

The Schmalzturm, also called the beautiful tower, is a structure of the first city wall (early 14th century) of Landsberg am Lech. Cloverleaf friezes run around the tower as adornment; colorful roof tiles in the colors of the city and a storm bell attachment express the importance of the gate. It was given the nickname "Schmalzturm" because on nice days the market women stood in the shadow of the gate with their goods, including lard. The lard remained firmer and could be sold better.

Historic Town Hall of Landsberg am Lech (Rathaus)

Highlight • Historical Site

From 1700, the New Town Hall was built in several phases. From 1719 to 1721 the building was extended by Dominikus Zimmermann and redesigned with a finely structured, towering gable front. The windows were staggered in size depending on the importance of the rooms behind them. The stucco facade is one of the most important profane creations of the master builder, who lived as a citizen in Landsberg from 1716 to 1757 and also temporarily served as a mayor here.

“… Karolinenbrücke – named after Max I Joseph’s wife. The bridge is of course much older, as it formed the basis for Landsberg's wealth from the salt trade. Thankfully, Henry the Lion also localized its route in Landsberg. And for which the city collected customs. When Max I Joseph inaugurated the bridge on January 1, 1806, it was far more representative than before. After Max's merger with Napoleon, it led to Swabia, which had finally become Bavarian. Architect Carl Friedrich von Wiebeking created a bridge with gallant central arches - which was dilapidated after just seven years. In 1910 it was destroyed by the flood, in 1930 it was widened and in 1952 the present bridge was built. ...”

Cycle Path Along the Stream Near Ellighofen

Highlight • Cycleway

Beautiful bike path from Ellighofen to Unterdiessen. Away from the road along a stream where there are many apple trees. Unfortunately there are a lot of apples in the stream now, it's a pity....
