The Vitus Fountain, dating from 1613, stands in the market square of Vacha in front of the red-timbered town hall. The statue depicts the city's patron saint, Saint Vitus, dressed as a Roman knight. His left hand hangs down, holding a shield that depicts his martyrdom.

Unmissable on the market square, the Vitus Fountain is a real eye-catcher. It was built in 1613 and renovated in 1818. The round sandstone basin contains a fountain column with reliefs from the life of the city's patron saint and is crowned with the figure of St. Vitus.

Impressive giant tree. The information board explains with a poem why the beech tree is lying there and no longer stands...

Breathtaking view over the Rhön, the Hessian Kegelspiel, the salt mountains and all the way to the Hoher Meißner.

The hut is open every Sunday from April to October, as well as on all Thuringian holidays, from 10 a.m. to 6 p.m. If the crowds that gather up here in good weather are too much and too loud for you, it's better to go up on other days.

Nice view, the kiosk is open on weekends

From every angle, the Philippsthal potash mine's spoil heap is a fantastic photo opportunity. Depending on the depth and layer from which the spoil reaches the heap, it displays different colors. The eastern edge of the heap lies directly on the former border with the GDR. A former border security watchtower can also be seen there.

The descent towards Langenfeld is very steep. Ride at your own risk!
