    Hiking

    The Franziskanerweg leads from the monastery in Kronach through the Haßlachtal, always along the western foot of the Kammberg to the "Holy Ponds" near Birkach, finally reaching the pilgrimage church "St. Maria" in Glosberg. It got its name in memory of the Franciscans, who from 1732 to 1745 made the daily journey from Kronach to Glosberg to provide spiritual care for the many pilgrims.
    Along this route, believing pilgrims donated a number of prayer stations in the form of several wayside shrines and a Way of the Cross with five stations.
