Rednitzhembach combines seasonal boat trips on the Rednitz with a circular route, mini golf and tangible traces of local history. When choosing where to stay, you can first decide what matters most to you: are you particularly interested in water and activity, an art trail, or technical and cultural topics? The options also differ in how they need to be planned—from a seasonal boat trip to a circular route with several possible starting points.

Water and activities in town

From Hembach Harbour, the fleet of boats operates on the Rednitz from Easter onwards. This is a seasonal service; check current operating information before your trip. FUNTASYGOLF on Walpersdorfer Straße in Rednitzhembach offers a different activity. The mini golf course, which opened in 2018, has 18 holes. This gives you a clear difference to consider when planning: the boat trip is seasonal, while the number of holes describes the size of the mini golf course.

There are also other kinds of water-related features besides the boat trip. An interactive mill wheel has been installed in the area of the Mainbach weir. A recreational area has been created at Walpersdorfer Weiher. One connects the theme of water with an interactive mill wheel, while the other offers a designed recreational area by the pond. So in Rednitzhembach, water is not associated only with the seasonal trip on the Rednitz.

Art trail and local history

The Rednitzhembach Art Trail is a popular excursion destination and is laid out as a circular route. You can start at various points and return to your starting point. This circular layout is a distinct planning consideration: you are not restricted to a single starting point, but the route is designed to bring you back to where you began. This distinguishes the art trail from the seasonal boat trip, which runs from Hembach Harbour on the Rednitz.

The Kuhr Mill tells a part of the town’s history: the transition from a mill to a small hydroelectric power station. Another detail of cultural history can be found in Rednitzhembach’s old town. The Evangelical Church of St. Antonius/St. Laurentius contains well-preserved wall frescoes. The mill and the church therefore represent different themes: the development from a mill to a small power station, and preserved wall paintings in the old town.

The municipal cinema museum offers another cultural and historical perspective. It has historic film projectors and cinema seats with a long history. This adds the history of film projection as a local topic alongside the history of the mill and the church.

As part of the “Experience Nature and History in Rednitzhembach” project, a Kneipp facility and a sand playground were built. The playground includes water and mud play equipment as well as a slide. These details relate to the project measures that were implemented; check the current condition of the facilities before visiting.

For a look beyond Rednitzhembach to the wider travel destination of Roth, different scales come into play: the 210-hectare Rothsee lake lies between Roth, Hilpoltstein and Allersberg. The “RH hoch 2” cycling route runs along the district boundaries and circles the entire district of Roth over a distance of more than 200 kilometres. Both are regional points of interest within the wider travel destination of Roth.
