Religious and Natural Landmark

Perched above the town of Spaichingen, the mountain of Dreifaltigkeitsberg is a very prominent natural and religious landmark. Nestled on the southwestern side of the Swabian Alps, the mountain rises at a height of 985 meters (3231 feet). Owing to years of limestone depositions on its surface, the mountain's shape resembles that of a wall. Dreifaltigkeitsberg is home to the Church of Holy Trinity, known for its Baroque architecture. The mountain is also a renowned destination for pilgrimage after it has been alluded to a legend when a shepherd stumbled upon a Holy Trinity Chapel. Affording vistas of the breathtaking surroundings and quaint towns, the mountain is a haven for nature lovers.
