The marketplace is the "heart" of the city in Oettingen as well. There are many very beautiful and well-maintained old houses here, not just the town hall from 1431.

Saint James the Greater, the first apostle, suffered martyrdom in Jerusalem in 44 AD. Two pilgrimage routes lead through Oettingen: on the one hand the Jakobsweg Nuremberg - Lake Constance - Einsiedeln and on the other the Augsburger Jakobsweg.
