    Hiking

    Although mining in Kupferberg was abandoned in 1925, the underground, riddled like Swiss cheese, has not been quiet to this day. The locals have long been accustomed to the fact that an old tunnel occasionally collapses beneath their feet. In 2011, for example, during the expansion of the visitor mine, a previously unknown new cavity unexpectedly opened up. Work had to be interrupted.

    Former mining town where copper was extracted. The church on the market square is worth seeing

    Hiking

    Many (inter-)regional hiking trails lead through Kupferberg, e.g. Frankenwaldsteig, Nortwaldweg, Fräckisches Steinreich. Furthermore, the Bergwerksgeschichtliche Rundwanderweg (mining history circular trail) towards Wirsberg starts here, for example.

    In the village, there is a small shop with a bakery. Outside, a milk filling station. The old hospital is still well-preserved in the village. On the outskirts of the village, there is a show tunnel about mining history. Some large mines of the company Schicker still show activity in the open-cast mine.
