Tips

Harald Schramm (Schocker)

June 3, 2021

The naturally created east-west connection, the scenic gate along the Röslau, has been used as a transition from the Bohemian Basin to the Fichtel Mountains and vice versa for many centuries. The first reasonably historically founded fact should be the passage of Charlemagne.
The trade route "Via que procedit de Egire" from Nuremberg via Creußen to Eger, already mentioned in 1061, led through the pass. The old imperial, army and trade routes from Frankfurt am Main via Kulmbach, Gefrees, Weißenstadt and Eger to Prague also ran through the narrow landscape and shaped them and their residents.
