This approximately 7.9 km long marked circular tour combines the historic city center, the natural landscape and culture in a varied way.
Historic buildings and facilities characterize the old town center along the way. The St. Jacobi Church, the Storck House and the memorial are listed buildings. The Schwarzbach stream runs through the Mühlenwiese meadow between the town hall and HAUS WERTHER. Art objects on the sculpture trail can be found from the town park to the HAUS WERTHER citizens' meeting place with the town library, archive and registry office. The entire complex was originally a manor and small aristocratic residence. The highlight on Schloßstraße (no. 111) is the Peter August Böckstiegel Museum. The artist's house has been supplemented by a modern museum building. Those interested in art should also plan a stop at the artist's house, which is well worth seeing, and the Café-Bistro Vincent. A detour along the Böckstiegel Trail to the Deppendorf Watermill (stop 17 on the Böckstiegel Trail) is also worthwhile.
