St. Peter and Paul in Detwang

Highlight • Religious Site

The idyllic village of Detwang is located directly on the Tauber. Worth seeing: the Riemenschneider Altar in the Church of St. Peter and Paul. To avoid disappointment, please contact the parish in advance: the church is not always open.

August 23, 2025,ja ist denn schon wieder Weihnachten? rund um Rothenburg ob der Tauber... und ja bald ist wieder 🌲🌲🌲🌲
At 7 a.m., Rothenburg ob der Tauber is still asleep...we started at the train station, then briefly through the historic old town and out of town. A lovely walk through the forest with stunning views of the Tauber Valley. Then across fields and meadows back into town... what a change from the morning :-) It was quite crowded. Still, we …

Walked the LT 29 from Rothenburg today. Half of the route is on secondary roads and bike paths. There are definitely better solutions.

At the starting point in Rothenburg there is no sign of the LT29 anywhere. But if you go outside the city wall you will also see the first hiking signs. The path is very varied with great views of the Taubertal and Rothenburg. Surefootedness is very important towards the end

Since she said that everything went really well and that I could definitely do another round, I decided to do another tour after my tour this morning. Originally I had planned to do a small tour near Heidenheim. However, when I arrived at the car park next to the …

hiking day! From Rothenburg we are on the Tauber Panorama Trail along the slope, mainly on meadow paths to Bettwar, from there down into the lovely Tauber Valley. The fun started after the small Tauber bridge: steep (20%) up to the Frankenhöhe - with a cold it was a bit challenging 😅. When we got to the top, we stayed …

Great route, even if there was a bit too much asphalt on the hiking trails (some of them were side roads). But there were hardly any cars, and it was still beautiful 😃

Today on the way in the Tauber Valley, near Rothenburg. The LT29 started in the rain in Rothenburg heading north on the east side of the Tauber
The path ran a little higher than the river. We always had a beautiful view of the Tauber. In Bettwar we changed the bank.
On the whole tour we had April weather, strong …
