Eberhardzell combines a distinctive Fasnet tradition with church art and natural attractions in the municipality. These themes appeal to different interests: from satirical commentary on village life to a contrast between different architectural styles, as well as landscapes and outdoor activities. You can choose the focus of your trip based on what you would like to discover.

Fasnet, church art and local history

Eberhardzell is known for its Bach-nab-Fahrt, part of the Upper Swabian Fasnet celebrations. Decorated rafts satirically comment on events in the village, politics and other topics. Its local focus and take on public affairs offer different points of connection; its satirical format makes the event a distinctive feature of Fasnet.

Eberhardzell parish church combines a Baroque chancel with a high altar and a modern transept. The contrast illustrates the different architectural styles within the church. In the chancel is the tomb monument of the knight Victor von Neideck, who died on December 20, 1502. The architecture and tomb thus offer two different historical and artistic focal points within the church.

The historic tithe barn serves a different purpose: it provides rooms for conferences, seminars, workshops and talks. A virtual tour offers insights into its history, rooms and distinctive features. This lets you explore the tithe barn as a historic building online.

Natural attractions and outdoor activities in the municipality

The 39-hectare FĂĽramooser Ried protected landscape lies within the FĂĽramoos district of the municipality of Eberhardzell. It is a habitat for rare plants and animals. On hot days, at Holzweiher, 1.6 kilometres from FĂĽramoos, you can swim, go for a walk or take a Nordic walking tour.

Hohbäumle near Füramoos offers something different: a place to rest. In fine weather, the view takes in the Alpine panorama from the Zugspitze to the Säntis; the spire of Ulm Minster is also visible. Holzweiher and Hohbäumle thus offer distinctly different experiences: swimming and outdoor activities take centre stage at the lake, while Hohbäumle is a place to rest and enjoy the views.

For a hike, circular trail 3 around Eberhardzell passes the Heinrichsburg, founded in 1478, and continues to the Liebherr estate administration. Check local conditions before setting out.

Nearby, the Awengen ski lift is located between Eberhardzell and Ummendorf-Fischbach. It has groomed slopes and two drag lifts. If you include the ski lift in your travel plans, check the current operating conditions in advance.

Choose the right focus for your trip

The different themes offer guidance for planning the rest of your trip without presuming a particular type of accommodation or amenities. This lets you tailor your search for a suitable base to your interests.
