Waldstrandbad Windsbach

Highlight • Rest Area

Very idyllic natural swimming pool. A nice opportunity for refreshment in summer. Due to the renovation a few years ago, the pool lost some of its wildness, but it is still very different from the "normal" outdoor pools. In the entrance area of the bathroom there is also a small kiosk with seating for something to eat or drink during a break.

City of Abenberg

Highlight • Castle

In the 11th century the Abenberg family appeared. Under Count Adalbert II (before 1040 to after 1059) the first castle was built largely of wood. Under Count Rapoto (1122–1172) it was replaced between 1130 and 1140 by one of the most imposing stone castles in Bavaria (40 × 40 metres). The Abenberg noble family, whose last Count Friedrich II was praised by Tannhäuser in the 13th century for promoting poetry, died out around 1200.[1]

In 1236 the town and castle came through marriage to the Hohenzollerns, the then burgraves of Nuremberg (see also Konrad IV.), after the male line of the Abenbergs had died out with Count Friedrich II. Between 1230 and 1250, the people of Nuremberg replaced the Salian-era building with a partially new building, which they hardly ever used. For this purpose, the circular wall was demolished and the main castle expanded to twice its size. The front was thickened and the fortified castle gate was built on the south-east corner. The ring wall built at that time is the oldest preserved part of the castle.

In 1296 the castle was sold to the Prince Bishopric of Eichstätt, which set up a caretaker office there and reinforced the weakly fortified north-west corner with a square tower.

In the 15th, 16th and 17th centuries a number of alterations were made. From 1496, the eastern front was provided with new nursing buildings. New farm buildings were built inside the castle. In the period that followed, the castle fell into disrepair. In 1799 the St. Otmar's Chapel collapsed.

In 1806, the Kingdom of Bavaria came into possession of the castle through secularization and sold it to Max Freiherr von Welden to be demolished. It was not until 1875 that the Munich art dealer K. J. Zwerschina acquired Abenberg Castle and saved the castle from total destruction. He rebuilt some towers, such as the 33 meter high Luginsland. The next owner, the Kammersänger Anton Schott, continued Zwerschina's work between 1881 and 1913. After that, however, the castle fell into disrepair again.

The city of Abenberg first acquired half of the castle in 1982 and the rest in 1984. In order to be able to finance renovation and maintenance, on March 8, 1986, together with the district of Roth and the district of Middle Franconia, it founded the Abenberg Castle special purpose association, which took over the castle as the owner . The aim was to preserve the monument and to revitalize it culturally. An operating concept was developed in the form of a museum and a restaurant.
