About Beilngries
Beilngries is a state-recognised resort town in the Altmühltal Nature Park, in Upper Bavaria. Nine of the twelve towers in its old city walls survive, and Schloss Hirschberg, a former hunting palace of the Eichstätt prince-bishops now used for conferences, has its courtyard open to the public. The neo-baroque St Walburga church, built 1911 to 1913, has 52 m twin towers, the base of the north one dating from the 12th century. The Main-Danube Canal runs past the town and the Altmühltal cycle route runs through the area. Our homes sit together in town, and they are small: mostly one bedroom, sleeping four, with Wi-Fi but no pool or sauna. The Toy Museum and a Brewery Museum with cellar tours and tasting are in town.
Is Beilngries right for you?
- Best for
- Cyclists and sightseers wanting a compact base in the Altmühltal
- Not for you if
- You want a pool, sauna or fireplace, because the homes here are compact and have none of them.
