Among the memorial sites commemorating the Battle of AidenbachIn 1704, at the start of the War of the Spanish Succession, French and Bavarian troops were defeated at the Battle of Höchstädt by the allied forces of the Holy Roman Empire and England. As a result, Emperor Joseph I ordered the occupation of the Bavarian Oberland and drastically increased taxes, which led to uprisings among the rural population. On January 8, 1706, a peasant army numbering several thousand men confronted the imperial troops near Aidenbach. However, when the peasant leaders found themselves facing the emperor’s well-equipped army, their courage failed them and they fled. Chaos ensued; the peasants were mercilessly slaughtered by the enemy soldiers—corpses littered the valleys and hills around Aidenbach for an hour’s walk. The Memorial Trail connects three sites commemorating the battle into a highly rewarding circular hiking route.
