Enjoyable descent - I would even plan a detour for this. You have to brake a lot because of the tight turns. All the more reason to enjoy the view 😊

A nice old town and a lot from the Romans

The current Church of St. Margaretha and Anna was built in 1786–1788 to replace an Anna chapel that had existed since the 15th century. It was designed by the Mainz court architect Emanuel Joseph von Herigoyen. A beautiful special feature: stones from the old church of Ruchelnheim were reused for parts of the church. The organ originally comes from the Schmerlenbach monastery and came to Sulzbach in 1882. After the construction of the larger St. Margareta Church in 1953, the old church was initially decommissioned. After its restoration, services and cultural events have been held here again since 1999. A surprisingly historic building in the middle of Sulzbach. 🏛️

The pilgrimage church of St. Mariä Himmelfahrt in Hessenthal is a very remarkable architectural ensemble. The two Gothic structures, the Chapel of Grace and the old pilgrimage church, are beautiful at first glance. The new pilgrimage church from 1954 is rather sober, but contains extraordinary works of art: the Lamentation of Christ by Tilman Riemenschneider and the Crucifixion group by Hans Backoffen.

Charming old town with its medieval tower still standing - a nice historic detour if you have a few extra minutes.

Super ascent or descent. The gradient percentages stay in the moderate range with a maximum of 8% and the asphalt is quite okay to ride on. In summer, you have to be a bit careful with the play of shadows caused by the sunlight filtering through the treetops. Here and there, you might otherwise overlook a small pothole in the asphalt or a crack/longitudinal joint in the road surface.
