Schotten

Schotten occupies the eastern slopes of the Vogelsberg volcanic upland in Hesse. The town stands in a region shaped by ancient volcanic activity, where wooded heights and open fields surround small settlements. Its compact historic centre retains half-timbered houses, while the Gothic Liebfrauenkirche is a defining landmark. Schotten also gives its name to the Schottenring, a long-established motorsport circuit and event associated with the town. The Vulkaneum visitor centre interprets the geology that formed the surrounding upland. Browse other webcams across Hesse and the Vogelsberg to place this setting in a wider geographic context.
