Discover Sankt Georgen Am Fillmannsbach

Historic Buildings and Traces of the Past

An important point of reference for visitors interested in culture is the Catholic parish church of St. George. It is designated as a listed property and is protected as a historic monument by ordinance. The parish church of St. George is a single-nave Gothic conglomerate church; its west tower has been preserved in its original form. The furnishings are largely Baroque, with individual remnants of the Gothic furnishings. Two Gothic figures of Catherine and Barbara from the end of the 15th century are located on the gallery balustrade. The site of the present-day Calvary chapel also contains a medieval castle site with a still-visible defensive ditch.

The historic bells of the parish church of St. Georgen am Fillmannsbach are also worth noting: they date from 1515. A document issued by Emperor Henry III in 1040 mentions a “capella s. Georgii martiris” at Wildsteig.

The former König brewery at Fillmannsbach 1 is protected as a historic monument by official decision pursuant to Section 3. The rectory at St. Georgen 13 is also protected as a historic monument by ordinance. It was built in 1791 and rebuilt after a fire in 1843. As a two-storey building with a hipped roof, simple plaster-frame detailing and a statue niche above the entrance, it offers specific architectural details for a cultural-history walking tour.

Friedensplatz, Pilgrims’ Rest Stop and Circular Trail

Friedensplatz has existed in the village of Fillmannsbach since 2018. The information boards and the rock from Falkenstein give the square its own thematic character. At the St. Georgen am Fillmannsbach pilgrims’ rest stop, there is a large erratic boulder from Falkenstein at Lake Wolfgang. The rest stop is located on the Wolfgangweg, the pilgrimage route from Regensburg to St. Wolfgang. This connection may be particularly interesting for you if you would like to combine historic places and routes with a more leisurely day itinerary.

Another specific option for a walk is the three-kilometre circular trail, which was created by closing the gap to the “Brauereiweg”. A footpath closes the gap to the “Brauereiweg”. The stated length will help you plan your day; it does not make any statement about walking time, inclines or the condition of individual sections. Depending on your preferred holiday pace, you can treat the circular trail as an activity in its own right or combine the cultural impressions of the village with a section of the route.
