Kühbach: Baroque Church, Miniature Models and Quarry Lake

Baroque Church Art and Models in Miniature

Today’s Baroque Church of St. Magnus in Kühbach was built in 1687–1688. The parish church was formerly the convent church of the Benedictine nuns. Inside, the furnishings are distinguished by rich High Baroque stucco decoration. The construction period, former convent function and stucco décor offer different perspectives on the same building: anyone interested in the Baroque can connect the church’s furnishings with the history of the place.

The Tyro Toys Museum in Kühbach-Radersdorf offers a very different focus. At present, its collection comprises 6,500 different miniature models. These include tractors, combine harvesters, dump trucks, excavators, balers and harrows. The wide selection of machinery and agricultural vehicles makes the collection’s theme especially vivid for anyone interested in technology in miniature. The stated number may change as the collection grows.

Radersdorf Quarry Lake and Seasonal Activities

At Radersdorf Quarry Lake in the Kühbach district of Radersdorf, there is a sunbathing lawn with a beach, showers, toilet facilities, a water rescue station, a kiosk and a restaurant. This makes a visit by the water another option alongside the church and museum. If you plan to use the kiosk or restaurant, check their current opening arrangements in advance. The “Paartal” campsite, with 200 pitches, borders the lake directly. As its capacity may change, check availability if you plan to stay there.

The “To the Castle on the Paar” hike is a good opportunity to stop at Radersdorf Quarry Lake, where there is also a miniature golf course. Another seasonal activity is the Radersdorf corn maze, which offers fun finding your way around and searching for things. It is an annual attraction, not an all-year-round offering. Check the current dates for your travel period. This will help you plan your outings according to whether you are looking for a hike, time at the lake or a seasonal experience.

Consider which of these matter for your stay and whether you would also like to include destinations in the wider Aichach-Friedberg area.
