The ‘hospitable market town between the rivers Ammer and Lech’ is one of the oldest settlements in the Lech and Ammer region. The castle of the Dukes of Welf in the Lechrain stood on the site of the present-day Schlossberg hill. Although almost 12,000 people now live there, the community has retained its rural charm. Numerous hiking and cycle routes run through unspoilt countryside.
