The Empty Tomb (Auferstehungsweg Höchheim Station)

Highlight • Religious Site

The idea of creating a Resurrection Trail around the parish of Höchheim arose at Easter 2010. For many years, Protestant Christians from the towns of Irmelshausen, Höchheim, and Rothausen have gathered there on Easter morning to celebrate the resurrection of Jesus in a sunrise service. This tradition inspired Pastor Beate Hofmann-Landgraf and the church council to create a circular hiking trail around the three parishes, focusing on the resurrection of Christ. Funding for the project was secured through the then Regional Bishop Christian Schmidt and his "Gerne evangelisch" project, so the trail was implemented relatively quickly in cooperation with the House of Church Services in Hanover and inaugurated on Easter Monday 2012.

St. James's Church Höchheim

Highlight • Religious Site

Jakobskirche is one of many sights.
Above all, the moated castle should be walked all the way around.
Plan a stop at Cafe Frieda in advance!
