Capuchin Hill

Локальное имя: Kapuzinerberg

The Capuchin Hill is 640 meters above sea level. Its name comes from the Capuchin monastery located here. In addition to the monastery buildings on the hill, we will also see the so-called Francis Castle, former defensive walls with fourteen towers and a monument dedicated to Mozart.

Currently, the Capuchin Hill serves primarily as recreational areas for city residents and tourists. There are hiking trails of varying difficulty here. Between June and March, some of the walls are also used as a climbing wall. On the hill, you can see a variety of vegetation, as well as chamois and many species of birds living freely here for centuries.

The Capuchin monastery was founded at the turn of the 16th and 17th centuries on the initiative of Archbishop Wolf Dietrich Raitenau and was to be a counterweight to the spreading Reformation. The present appearance of the monastery was given by the expansion at the end of the 17th century.
