Hiking Highlight
The mountain chapel, built in 1419 and dedicated to St. Mauritius, gave the mountain its name - Moritzberg. Very nice little chapel right next to the "Berggasthof Moritzberg", after the fair you can go for a morning drink and the Hindenburg tower. The chapel of St. Mauritius on Moritzberg belongs to the city of Röthenbach a. d. Pegnitz and is cared for by the Protestant parish in Leinburg.
