Schwalefeld, district

Welcome to Schwalefeld - your vacation resort for relaxing and nature-oriented vacations in the beautiful Aartal! The idyllic district of the municipality of Willingen inspires with untouched nature, picturesque half-timbered houses and an atmosphere that promises both peace and relaxation. Nestled in a dreamlike landscape of fragrant meadows, cornfields, forests and idyllic flowing streams, Schwalefeld offers the perfect backdrop for beautiful walks
Schwalefeld is not only scenic, but also steeped in history. The Schwalenburg ramparts, an impressive fortification from days long past, puzzles amateur archaeologists and history buffs and invites you to explore it. The origins of this mighty complex are still shrouded in mystery, which is what makes it so appealing.

The town has been awarded the title of "high-altitude climatic health resort" thanks to its healthy healing climate and the warm hospitality of its inhabitants. In the old church hall in the center of the village there is a guest information center, a spinning room and an inviting spa square with a music pavilion. Concerts and local festivals take place here during the summer months, offering visitors varied entertainment and enriching their stay at the spa.
The Schwalefeld Pilgrim Church is a very special experience. You can celebrate your own personal church service at 12 stations. Each station corresponds to an element of the service: greeting, petition for the Holy Spirit, call to prayer and praise, profession of faith, Lord's Prayer, blessing and more. A Wailing Wall has also been set up, where each visitor can make a request or give thanks and - as in Israel at the Temple Wall - place it on a piece of paper in the wall. The pilgrimage church is constantly being redesigned for different occasions.

Schwalefeld, with around 680 inhabitants and 800 guest beds, impresses with its peaceful atmosphere and proximity to Willingen, which is only 2.5 kilometers away. The wide range of leisure activities in Willingen are within easy reach and make Schwalefeld the ideal starting point for activities in the region.
Cosy inns and restaurants spoil you with regional specialties. Schwalefeld offers 800 guest beds in comfortable vacation apartments, guesthouses and hotels.
