    Tips

    Hiking

    At this point you will come across the Prächtinger burial mound fields. In the meantime, "grass" has grown over the extensive area. Here archaeologists not only found more than 60 tombs, but also a terracotta horse and a foot bowl from the Hallstatt period (800 to 450 BC). Review the original funort. You can admire the finds yourself in the town museum in Bad Staffelstein (Krichgasse 16).
