    Here on the Bindlacher Berg stood a monastery, now it is a memorial, namely "Jobst Monastery".
    A great view all around. With the mountain bike you continue to the Oschenberg and Fichtelgebirge, if you come from BT or KU, also the way back is ideal here to Bindlach or Harsdorf 🚵🚵‍♀️🚵‍♂️

    The St. Jobst Monastery only existed for a short time. In 1506 a late Gothic church was built. This resulted in an expansion of the St. Jobst pilgrimage site, which had been in existence since 1430 and which owes its location to a place of grace and a healing fountain. After the secularization in 1529, the monastery was abandoned. The decay begins and from 1559 the removal of demolition material.
