Aal Cycle Path to Waldbüttelbrunn

Highlight (Segment) • Cycleway

Shortly after the motorway exit 67 Helmstadt you can drive onto the Aal-Radweg, which comes from Mädelhofen right next to the B8. Fields and trees adorn the edges of the road and make pedaling on the smooth asphalt a pleasure.

Drinking Water Fountain and E-Bike Charging Station

Highlight • Rest Area

E-bike charging station and water point.
I think that every place should have a drinking water point - like in Italy.

St. Bartholomew's Church (Bartholomäuskirche) Uettingen

Highlight • Religious Site

The first church burned down in 1634 in the chaos of the Thirty Years' War, along with the entire village.
In 1714 the church was once again destroyed by fire. It was not until 1754 that the current church, which was built in the Baroque style, was consecrated again.

Biergarten Zur Holzmühle

Highlight • Pub

Here you sit in the middle of a wonderfully well-tended garden. So beautiful!
Now there is more meat-heavy BBQ food with a few vegetarian dishes (possibly vegan on request), homemade cakes are good (but not more). Rather not as organic as it used to be.

Holzmühle Holzkirchen

Highlight • Restaurant

Stop in the old wood mill is really great. Whether in the courtyard or in the beer garden - every place is fantastic. The children can play by the creek while the parents enjoy the sun on a sunbed in the meadow.

Holzkirchen Monastery

Highlight • Religious Site

According to a document from the year 775, the Gaugraf of the Waldsassengau Troandus handed over the monastery "Holtzchiricha" [1] he had built to Charlemagne, who in turn transferred it to the Imperial Abbey of Fulda. The monastery had its heyday at the beginning of the 12th century However, this only lasted until 1273. On October 1 of that year, a group of armed men attacked the monastery and burned it down. The monastery only slowly recovered. By 1518, Provost Reinhard von der Tann had rebuilt the provost building and surrounded the monastery with a wall. He also renovated the dilapidated buildings and decorated the monastery church. In 1525 the provost Holzkirchen was again severely damaged in the Peasants' War. In 1552 the monastery was dissolved in the course of the Reformation by Count Michael III von Wertheim. The monastery goods were confiscated. Already in 1561 the property became property returned to the monastery, however, the life of the monastery remained extinct.In 1612 Prince Bishop Julius Echter moved the monastery al s settled fief for the Bishopric of Würzburg. A newly established convent of twelve monks was expelled by the Swedes in 1631 during the Thirty Years' War.
In 1724, Bonifatius von Hutten, a brother of Prince Bishop Christoph Franz von Hutten, took over the provost and built the monastery church of St. Maria (Holzkirchen) between 1728 and 1730, a creation by Balthasar Neumann.
It was not until 1759 that a monastery was reestablished by Ferdinand Zobel von und zu Giebelstadt.

Holzkirchen Monastery

Highlight • Religious Site

As if out of nowhere, the Holzkirchen Monastery suddenly appears, a Benedictine provost that dates back to 768 AD. Part of today's baroque church building goes back to the famous Balthasar Neumann. The central building with the dome, which was destroyed by fire in the 19th century, has now been reconstructed.
Absolutely worth seeing!
