At the Spitzelberg vantage point, which is 317 m above sea level, visitors can look down into the Main valley. The enjoyment is a little clouded by the A 70 motorway, which is located directly at the foot of the viewpoint. Above the panorama panel and a bench with a table is a historic sandstone cross and next to it a grotto with the Holy Sepulcher of Jesus. This is also where the border between Upper and Lower Franconia runs.

Nice vantage point into the Main valley, unfortunately affected by the massive noise of the motorway.

The district border Bamberg / Haßberge and the border between the administrative districts of Upper and Lower Franconia go almost exactly through the summit cross.

In the base of the cross there is a small grotto, in front of the cross there is a bench with a table on the valley side.

The Spitzlberg not only marks the political border between the administrative districts of Upper and Lower Franconia, the districts of Bamberg and Haßberge, and the districts of Staffelbach and Stettfeld, but also the ecclesiastical border between the dioceses of Bamberg and Würzburg.
