Gottesgab

The lakes around Gottesgab are a dream, in the sun they glitter unbelievably, the small fishing sheds are the perfect photo motifs and there are also many water birds.

Administratively, Gottesgab is a hamlet (= settlement with more than two and less than ten residential buildings), which belongs since 1972 to the municipality Ählfeld. Aesthetically, the place looks almost like a small island in the Wadden Sea due to the surrounding pond chain. Where the unusual name comes from, could not be clarified - the same applies to the question of whether there is a relationship with the Czech village Godgab (Boží Dar).

The hamlet is surrounded by the Gottesgabweihern, which is fed by the Wintersbachgraben, which is a right tributary of the Aisch.

The small homestead collection is really worth its name: God's gift is a God's gift! Beautifully located in the middle of ponds!

The name says it all! What a wonderful natural environment surrounded by carp ponds from Aischgründer you can find coots, storks, 🦢🦢, 🐸🐸, 🐇🐇, great crested grebes, seagulls and v. a. Animals and beautiful plants 👀. The sunset in particular is tough ☀️ 🍀🤪.
