Small pond in the Grafenrheinfeld municipal forest. Good hiking and biking trails.

In the Tännig valley, east of Grafenrheinfeld, a small dune field is located in an extensive former mining area of Pleistocene drifting sand. Westerly winds deposited the sand in sheltered areas during the cold periods of the last 2.6 million years. The most striking dune is accessible via a hiking trail (Auenwaldweg) that runs directly past it. Two larger sand outcrops exist. The dune and its surroundings are under special protection as a protected landscape feature.

The Grafenrheinfeld Nuclear Power Plant (KKG) was in operation from 1982 to 2015. It is located south of Schweinfurt near Grafenrheinfeld in Lower Franconia, on the left bank of the Main River. Construction began in 1974 by Bayernwerk AG, and commissioning took place on December 9, 1981. It is a third-generation pressurized water reactor (“pre-Konvoi” plant) with a gross electrical output of 1,345 megawatts. Annual electricity production averaged over ten billion kilowatt hours. It is operated by PreussenElektra GmbH, based in Hanover. The nuclear power plant has two widely visible cooling towers, each 143 meters high. A newly built interim storage facility for spent nuclear fuel elements began operation on March 1, 2006. The nuclear power plant was shut down on June 27, 2015. On August 16, 2024, the two cooling towers were demolished. Source: Wikipedia
