Map of the Aichach-Friedberg Region:
This region is the home of "real" Bavarians and Swabians. At least I got this feeling because people spoke a different dialect. However, I must visit this area again to find out the differences in food.
We will gladly do this because there is so much to explore and to see. You will find much evidence of the "Wittelsbacher" who ruled Bavaria between 1180 and 1918.
There are castles, churches, monuments and museums which have been built by them or are dedicated to members of their family.
When you travel through this region you also will see many signs of the religiousness in the past. Pilgrims came to villages such as Inchenhofen, Sielenbach, Schmiechen.
 Inchenhofen with the church "St. Leonhard", the destination of many of pilgrims
I will try not to miss one of the open air performances in the ruins of the castle Schiltberg. These spectacles are mostly related to historical events.
We also want to see again some of the castles in Unterwittelsbach, Haslangkreit, Affing, Pöttmes, Scherneck, Hofhegnenberg and Mering.
You can also visit many pilgrimage churches. Ask at any tourist office for details.
 Kissing (name of the village), little chapel (Burgstallkapelle)
