Allgäu Heritage Trail

This heritage trail spans the diverse history of the Allgäu and surrounding Swabian regions, from UNESCO-listed prehistoric caves and Neolithic settlements in the Lone Valley to the iconic 19th-century royal castles of King Ludwig II. The collection features medieval ruins like Burghalde in Kempten, Baroque and Rococo churches, and historic manor houses. These sites document the transition from early human habitation to the architectural grandeur of the Bavarian monarchy and the regional religious heritage of southern Germany.
