Judenkirche, Natural arch in Oberstdorf, Germany.

The Judenkirche stands as a limestone arch formation measuring 15 meters in length and 2 meters in width at an elevation of 1060 meters.

The name Judenkirche dates back to the 17th century when local residents considered this natural formation as an unusual religious landmark in the region.

The Environmental Committee designated this natural arch as an official monument in 2007, recognizing its geological importance within the Allgäu region.

Visitors can reach the site through a 3.3-mile trail from Fischen-Langenwang, following signs toward Hirschsprung and continuing uphill to the monument.

Behind the natural arch formation extends a substantial cavity, creating a geological structure that combines the features of both an arch and a half-cave.
