This walking trail passes through sites of historical interest which narrate the story of Tiers am Rosengarten. In addition to the parish church, notable historic sites en-route include the schoolhouse, the ‘Galgenwiesl’ (Eng: “Gallows Meadows”) field and the St. Sebastian chapel, to name but three of the eleven stations. Each site is indicated by stone tablets and marker stones.

Details

The history trail begins at the parish church in Tiers am Rosengarten village centre. Across the meadow banks, the path initially leads out of the valley until you get to the deep trench below the southwest slope of the Cima del Monte Balzo/Völseggspitze. When you arrive at the former Burg Völsegg Castel, the trail turns in the opposite direction and leads on, partly through woodland and partly along the edge of the wood, to the Weißlahnbad. From here, make your way across meadows and cultivated land back to the set-off point.

Approach

To get here, take interurban bus no. 176 to Tiers am Rosengarten. The set-off point at the Tourist Information Office is south of the Tiers- Brunnenplatz bus stop on the main road..
