Erlebnistour 11: Taubertal und Gaubahn

Discover Creglingen and the surrounding area over 27.5 km.

This tour is ideal as a short tour in between as well as for a leisurely cycle tour at the weekend. Although the start and end points in Creglingen are no longer accessible by train despite their location on the former Gaubahn, the nearest train station in Weikersheim is not too far away. From there, the tour across the Tauber Valley is also quite easily accessible. At most, the start and end points need to be moved to Bieberehren.

In Creglingen, by the way, you can do a whole museum tour if you wish: The Lindlein Tower Museum is housed in an old watchtower and offers unique insights into the way of life of the tower's last inhabitants. In the Thimble Museum you can see a whole range of sewing tools, some of which are elaborately crafted. The Jewish Museum, on the other hand, is dedicated to the peculiarities of Jewish life in Creglingen from the beginning of the 17th century until 1939.
