Legend Under the Linden Tree - Attractions in Waischenfeld

If you have found a beautiful accommodation with a balcony or a comfortable holiday home in Waischenfeld in Upper Franconia, you can discover numerous attractions. The community boasts two impressive castles. Rabeneck Castle is located between the town center and the Wiesent Valley. Waischenfeld Castle is situated right in the town and is one of the most popular destinations for tourists. Also worth seeing are the Anna Chapel, the Nankendorf Church, or the town parish church. Franconian Switzerland is also known for the romantic mills in the river valleys. Especially along the Wiesent River, you will find some of these fascinating old mills. In the middle of Waischenfeld stands the City Mill, which has been family-owned since 1698. Here, you can buy flour in various types directly from the producer. The Russenlinde in Breitenlesau is considered a scenic landmark. Under the linden tree, there is a memorial column adorned with a cross. Relatives of the Russian General Roppmann are said to have erected the column because he is believed to have died at this spot during the passage of his troops at the beginning of the last century. Another story claims that his own soldiers beat him so severely that he managed to reach the linden tree and died there. Along the Wiesent River, eight artists have created a sculpture promenade for the 700th anniversary of Waischenfeld. In the picturesque town of Muggendorf, you can visit the Muggendorf caves or participate in the famous pumpkin parade. Also Pottenstein with its famous Devil's Cave or Pottenstein Castle is nearby. Also worth visiting are the towns of Gößweinstein (with the pilgrimage basilica) or Hollfeld (with the "Blue Tower" featuring a museum and artist studio). In Mistelgau, the Obernsees Spa is a family-friendly water park with slides, steam baths, or sauna area. Also, consider a trip to Rabenstein or the Sophien Cave in the Ahorntal. Simply rent a holiday accommodation, a house, an apartment (FeWo), or an apartment with a terrace, kitchen, full comfort, balcony, and tailored to your personal wishes, and explore the area with family and children.
