Location/ Things to do
|
|
Due to its tranquil and idyllic
setting, Eversleigh is the ideal place to relax in.
There are forests, hiking trails, history all around:
across the moat the splendid church of 'Mary
Ascension', dating from the year 1411. Alongside it
you will find the outbuildings of the former Castle
Aichheim of the Counts of Rechberg from the 15th
century.

For those who are interested in art
history, the churches of Altenstadt, Bergenstetten,
Filzingen, Illereichen and Untereichen, originating
from the middle ages and the baroque era, will prove
sights of international rank. Worth a visit is also
the Jewish cemetery in Illereichen.
But there is more on offer: entertainment, sport,
culture, shopping - there is something for everybody,
and good food, too.
For those who have booked rooms in the Schloss
Illereichen for their family celebrations or business
events, Eversleigh offers good accommodation
conveniently close-by.
Only few minutes away are the towns of Altenstadt and
Illertissen where you can find further restaurants to
suit all tastes from local to international.
Switzerland, Austria, Lake Constance, the Alps, and
the Allgäu as Germany's southern-most holiday region
are all within an hour's drive. Closer-by are
Ottobeuren (basilica and its famous organ),
Babenhausen (Fugger castle and museum), Roggenburg
monastery and the Vöhlin castle in Illertissen with
its bee museum). The former imperial towns of
Memmingen and Kempten offer idyllic and central
shopping as you might not see it in many other German
towns, they are within easy distance via the A7
motorway.
