Buchen Town Tower

Buchen originally had four gate towers within the town fortifications: the Hainstadt Gate, the Seetor, the Würzburg Gate and the Mainz Gate (today's town tower). Above the outer archway is the well-known Buchen carnival symbol, the "Blecker".

My tip: Hiking in the Odenwald with friends and family is always a highlight.
Psst: don't tell anyone that there are such beautiful spots in the Odenwald.

Child-friendly hike on forest paths with explanations and a beautiful lake with picnic opportunities at the turning point. Numerous explanations and active stations along the way as well as a great playground at the starting/ending point.
