📍 About the location
: Moenchberg is located in the Bavarian part of the low mountain range and nature park called Spessart, around 65km south-east of Frankfurt. It is considered a Luftkurort (climatic spa) and a popular touristic place in this region, not least because there are still a lot of medieval buildings and frame houses around as well as the historic city wall. In your free time you can go on trips and maybe take a guided tour at the local brewery, where a special beer for the anniversary is made. You can also relax at the public heated swimming pool with a scenic view.
⚠️ Requirements
Volunteers will often work in small teams together with locals, so volunteers who want to improve their German speaking skills are especially welcome.
