Untereuerheim

We drove out in the country today, through lots of little villages. We stopped at a bakery and then visited the Abteikirche in Ebrach. It was built 1200-1285. It was a church and monastery, today the church still serves its purpose, but the monastery is a juvenile detention center! As you can see from the outside, pic 1, the church doesn’t look like much. We were surprised when we stepped inside and saw how decorated and beautiful it was(pics 2-4)!
Then we did something very unique, we went on a walkway in the woods. It took us above the treetops, to a height of 138.1 feet! The wooden walkway took us through the trees and there were things to entertain us along the way, like trying to walk on different surfaces, pics 7&8 and then pretending to be a Rotwild and actually seeing one! They are similar to a white tailed deer. After awhile we started walking up this spiral structure to the top! Pics 4-14 are of this experience. It was a cloudy and chilly day, but really fun.
Afterward we stopped at a cafe for coffee to warm up!

Highlight of the day: Baumwipfelfad! The walkway above the treetops!Read more
