The Franconian Saale cycle path leads through the wide meadow with a view of the satellite dishes of the Hammelburg earth station. And if you look closely, you can see a small wine region on the slope of the surrounding mountain.

The Fuchsstadt earth station is an earth station in the Lower Franconian district of Bad Kissingen in the municipality of Fuchsstadt. It was built by the German Federal Post Office and is now operated by the US company Intelsat. The Fuchsstadt earth station serves as a ground station for communication with communications satellites and enables, among other things, satellite-based telephone calls, Internet connections and television broadcasts. Until the 1990s, Fuchsstadt was an important hub in the global communications network; this importance has been lost because the vast majority of continental and intercontinental messages are now exchanged via fiber optic cables.

The earth station has 50 parabolic antennas, including two Type A antennas with a diameter of 32 meters and around 25 others with a diameter of more than 9.3 meters each. The earth station is one of the largest satellite communications facilities in the world. It is Intelsat's first earth station in Europe and also the largest of the six that the company operates. With its large parabolic antennas, it is visible from far away in the Saale valley.
