Easy to reach place with a beautiful view over the Frankfurt area.

The Pelagiusplatz was created in 1863 by the Homburg hiking club "Samstagsgesellschaft" (a predecessor of the TAUNUSKLUB) as a vantage point and hiking destination. Every year on the day of Saint Pelagius (September 1) there was a hike there.

The Wall-Krause-Sommer refuge at Pelagiusplatz is a magnet. Great view, often a lot of fun with outdoor freeks, but always fun for everyone. And there is space for everyone, if you like.
