Tips from the Community
The first pilgrimage church was built as early as 1414 under the Fürstenfeld abbot, Johann II of Bibrach. Why the Cistercians of Fürstenfeld built a church in honor of Saint Willibald is unclear. The Cistercians otherwise promoted the veneration of Saint Leonard. It is likely that Willibald was already being venerated at this site before then. Saint Willibald is the patron saint of animals. In July 1983, director Wolfgang Büld filmed the music video for the punk rock band Die Toten Hosen's single "Eisgekühlter Bommerlunder" in the church. The filming, which took place over a weekend and was described as "quite turbulent," led to excitement and outrage among the residents of Jesenwang and led to the priest re-consecrating the church shortly thereafter.

Cycle path into Stegen, be careful of the many pedestrians and other traffic. On weekends, it's as busy here as the Oktoberfest.

The Via Julia Cycle Route runs 312 kilometers from Günzburg to Salzburg. The Via Julia, which has only been called this since 2003, existed as a military road under Emperor Septimius Severus and was an important road connection running from Strasbourg (Argentorum) via Günzburg (Guntia) and Augsburg (Augusta Vindelicum) to Salzburg (Iuvavum). The starting point of the Via Julia is the Roman-influenced town of Günzburg. From there, the historical route begins, with information on Roman history around Guntia, which follows the route of the Roman road, and ends in Salzburg. At that time, Günzburg (Gontia) was one of the most important road junctions in the Roman province of Raetia. The Via Julia Cycle Route runs from Günzburg (Danube) via Augsburg to Salzburg. The signposted cycle route largely follows the original route of the Roman road. The most important places along the cycle route are: Günzburg - Augsburg - Schöngeising - Gauting - Grünwald - Aying - Aschbach - Rosenheim - Söchtenau - Bad Endorf - Breitbrunn - Seebruck - Chieming - Traunstein - Teisendorf - Freilassing Mitterfelden/Siezenheimer Steg - Salzburg.
