    One of the most popular viewpoints with picturesque views over Gößweinstein and Franconian Switzerland. The Kreuzberg is located on a steep rock on which stands the so-called high cross. He is also the end of the Way of the Cross of the pilgrims. From the Kreuzberg you have a wonderful view over the northern Franconian Switzerland, the Wiesenttal and the place with its castle and pilgrimage basilica.

      The path leads above the basilica with a great view over Gößweinstein.

        Beautiful Way of the Cross past the Elisabethen Grotto, Ölberg Grotto and Capuchin Cave to Kreuzberg.
