Oberursel (Taunus)

Start your journey of discovery with a walk through the picturesque old town of Oberursel. Here you will find historic half-timbered houses, narrow alleys and the impressive market square with the "Storchennest" fountain. Also visit the Gothic town hall from the 15th century and the St.Ursula Church from the 12th century.

Another highlight of the town is Homburg Castle, a baroque hunting lodge from the 18th century with magnificent rooms and an extensive art collection.

For culture enthusiasts, a visit to the Vortaunus Museum or the Museum Altes Rathaus, where you can learn more about the history of the region, is worthwhile.

In summer, you can take a trip to the open-air swimming pool at the Bleiche or go for a bike ride along the Taunus Cycle Path. In winter, on the other hand, the skiing area at the Feldberg with its numerous slopes and cross-country skiing trails beckons.

But even in bad weather, there are plenty of activities in Oberursel: How about a visit to the Opel Zoo, for example? Here you can experience exotic animals up close and learn about species conservation at the same time.

Culinary Oberursel has a lot to offer: Be sure to try the "Handkäs mit Musik", a local speciality made from sour milk cheese and onions. Or enjoy a good drop in one of the cosy wine taverns.

As a special highlight, we recommend the Brunnenfest, which takes place annually in June and attracts numerous visitors. Here you can sample regional specialities, listen to live music and let yourself be carried away by the cheerful atmosphere.

Overall, Oberursel (Taunus) is definitely worth a trip - whether for those interested in culture or outdoor enthusiasts. The town offers plenty of variety and relaxation all year round in a picturesque setting at the foot of the Taunus Mountains. So it's a perfect destination for anyone looking for authentic experiences!
