The Romantic Road from Würzburg to Füssen

• King Ludwig's Castles (about 3 miles, 5 km)

The world-famous Neuschwanstein Castle is located in the immediate vicinity of Füssen. Also Hohenschwangau Castle is locatetd here.

• Welfenmünster (about 13 miles, 20 km)

The Welfenmünster was already inaugurated in 1176, built in Romanesque style. Despite numerous redesigns and modernizations, this is still visible today. Originally built as a monastery church of the Premonstratensian monastery, the church is today the parish church of Steingaden.

• Wieskirche (about 16 miles, 25 km)

This rococo church (1746-1754) is a UNESCO World Heritage site and should be a stop on every travel route. Seldom have cheerfulness and devoutness been combined more beautifully than in the light-flood interior, which can also be enjoyed during one of the frequent concerts.

• Landsberg am Lech (about 40 miles, 65 km)

The historic city center with many small streets, the witches' quarter, medieval city towers and the baroque town hall is worth a visit. Also nice is a stretched out walk on the riverbank.

• Augsburg (about 62 miles, 100 km)

This once so powerful city under the merchant family of the Fuggers is historically closely connected with Füssen. Even today it is seat of a Roman Catholic bishopric and has sights from many epochs to offer its visitors.
