history

In the area around Strüth there was still a castle in the early Middle Ages , which is now classified as a ground monument , "Burgstall Schönstein". Originally the village was also called "Strütheim", which points to a settlement during the Frankish colonization in the 7th and 8th centuries. The place was part of the parish of Röttingen for a long time and only got its own church in the 18th century. Strüth has been part of the city of Röttingen since 1972.

Attractions

The center of the village is the Catholic parish church of St. Johannes Nepomuk. The church is presented as a small hall with a retracted choir . The little church ends with a hipped roof , the ridge turret , however, was covered with a bell roof. Originally, the church was also consecrated to St. Wendelin. The Nepomukskirche was built in 1742. The rectory was built at the same time and was created as a plastered solid building with a mansard hipped roof.

The Bavarian State Office for Monument Preservation has also classified a so-called stable house in the Altort as a monument. It presents itself as a two-story saddle roof building with a half-timbered upper floor. A Pietà as a house figure was created in 1820. Strüth is also characterized by many wayside shrines and small memorials that have been set up all over the village and in the district. They testify to the popular piety of past centuries.
