Kirchlauter is a community in Lower Franconia in the southern part of the district Hatred Mountains. The community and its districts are located in the gently sloping side valleys of the Mains, embedded between the Stachel natural forest reserve and the FFH area Haßbergetrauf. Not only the charming agricultural landscape, but also the many sights in and around the place are worth a visit.

background

A burial mound southwest of Pettstadt bears witness to the first human settlements in prehistory and early history.[1]

The valleys in the south facing the Main, the many springs and streams, the abundance of fish and game, as well as wood and sandstone as building material, are likely to have favored further settlement. It is believed that the region was settled by Slavs in the 8th century during the Frankish-Carolingian expansion of the country.

The community has been part of the administrative community since 1978 Ebelsbach, is part of the Haßberge Nature Park and is divided into the following districts:

By bike and on foot

The community is crossed by several cycling and hiking trails. See also Hiking and cycling tours in Kirchlauter.

mobility

Those who are good on foot or by bike should not only explore the hiking trails, but can also reach the individual districts and their sights very easily via the agricultural trails. The old paths between the villages still exist today, which have often been forgotten due to the road expansion in the 1950s. Anyone traveling by car will quickly notice that the individual villages are only a few minutes' drive apart. Or you can use the local public transport system VGN Transport association for the greater Nuremberg area. However, this can only be used to a very limited extent for short distances between the individual villages.
