Walting

Beautiful churches as well as two picturesque small Baroque castles in the districts Inching and Pfünz embellish the municipality.
The bridge (from the dark ages) called “Römerbrücke” at a old roman passage over the Altmühl and the rebuilt Roman fort in Pfünz are amongst those sights which are also worth seeing there.
The keep with a height of 18 metres and the surrounding water moat are the elements which are still visible of the water castle “Rieshofen”. The juniper heath at Gungolding is a marvellous nature reserve.

Attractive topography; the fort on the Kirchberg (mountain) is located high above today’s village. North gate as well as adjoining wall sections and corner towers completely reconstructed. Foundation walls of west and south gate also conserved after excavation; the south gate is marked by a grove of trees. The moat of the defence wall has been uniquely well-preserved in the Jurassic rock.
