Mystical resting place on a gate-shaped rock formation, the French Bridge. While taking a break here, you can be amazed at what physics and skillful architecture can do.

A mystical rock arch made of sandstone. It was built with the help of French emigrants during the French Revolution, hence the name. At the rest area right next to it, you can admire this artistic structure in peace.

Hiking

The "Franzosenbruck" is a station on the Princess-Friederike-Weg. At 450 meters you can experience walkable history, a pond with an accessible island where the gentlemen invited you for coffee, the Franzosenbruck as an originally designed rock gate, a small mountain lake at the foot of the ascent to the victory tower, past imposing rock formations. The path steeped in history got its name in memory of Princess Friederike Sophie, the only daughter of Wilhelmine von Bayreuth and Margrave Friedrich.
