A historic outdoor sundial set on the Schloss Hellenstein hill with panoramic views over Heidenheim. Shoot the ornate dial, its engraved gnomon shadows at golden hour, and wide vistas of the town and Swabian hills. Best at sunrise or late afternoon for warm light and strong shadow lines; clear days reveal crisp gnomon silhouettes. Easily reached on foot from town or from the Schloss parking area; no entry fee. Weekdays are quieter. Respect historic site and nearby paths.
