Schmidgaden

Among the towns of Bavaria, Schmidgaden stands out for the former Premonstratensian Abbey of Schmidgaden, a historic focal point beside the Schwarzach. This small Upper Palatinate municipality occupies a gently rolling setting of fields, woodland and scattered settlements shaped by the river valley. The abbey’s origins reach back to the 12th century, and its church and monastic buildings lend the village centre a presence unusual for a community of this size. Schmidgaden suits travellers looking beyond Bavaria’s major urban centres and into the quieter countryside around the Naab valley.
