Romanesque House Seligenstadt

Highlight • Historical Site

This “stone house” was probably built in 1187 on the occasion of a court day of the Staufer emperor Friedrich I Barbarossa. It was not until 1978 that committed monument …

Seligenstadt Old Town

Highlight • Settlement

There should be something for everyone between the picturesque old town with its many shops, the iconic basilica with its well-kept monastery garden and the banks of the Main with the ferry to Bavaria.

Wasserburg Seligenstadt

Highlight • Castle

The Seligenstadt moated castle is definitely worth visiting, unfortunately only from the outside. But it is located in a somewhat remote part of Seligenstadt and you can enjoy it all in peace

Today's tour is an easy hike through Seligenstadt's old town and along the Main River.
For €2 (day ticket), I park in the Kloster parking deck on Aschaffenburger Strasse. It's only a few meters to the old town.
Before I explore the old town, I pass the Old Cemetery. In the cemetery, right on the Main River, stands a powder …

I used today's tour to get my bearings for a canoeing trip. Near Mainflingen, there's a good place to launch boats. It's at the NATO ramp in Mainflingen. My route took me along the footpath/cycle path along the Main. On the way there, I crossed the Kilianus Bridge, along the Bavarian side. There are many more places to rest and …

The Main is really beautiful on this route 🤩... Seligenstadt anyway 😊

Parking: Seligenstadt Monastery parking deck.
Many clouds, occasionally releasing high humidity or a light drizzle, subdued light, and an autumnal atmosphere. First, a detour to the old town to stock up on provisions, then a ferry across the Main. On the other bank, take the right path and immerse yourself in the meditative atmosphere. Listen to the waves of the …

Today we went on a little convertible tour in beautiful weather to Dettingen am Main. We parked the car and then walked down the Main to Seligenstadt. We took the ferry there and enjoyed an ice cream to relax.
Then we went back up the Main to Dettingen. Just before crossing the bridge the battery on my phone died, but …

A week ago, 30 degrees Celsius and sunscreen, today it's about 13-15 degrees Celsius and ☁️. Autumn is in a hurry this year.
We took the ferry to the Bavarian shore and leisurely strolled along the equally flowing Main to the Kilianus Bridge, then back to Seligenstadt on the local 😄 side.
Peace and relaxation. Here's a cormorant (who can …

What April weather. There must have been something wrong with the timing. But it was all there: sunshine, heavy rain, wind, hail. And it was real timing, just as we got to the car the thunderstorm started with freezing rain.
It was still a nice round. 😃
