Westheim

Westheim sits at the foot of the Hahnenkamm hills in Bavaria, where the wooded rises of the Franconian Alb meet open farming country. The municipality lies in Middle Franconia, between the Altmühl valley and the Ries region, in a rural setting far removed from Bavaria’s major cities. Westheim is also known to archaeologists for an early-medieval Alamannic burial ground; finds from its excavated graves have contributed to the study of southern Germany after the Roman period. Fields and low hills around the village are suited to walking and cycling, while local settlements retain a distinctly Franconian character.
