Sand Quarry Steigerwald

Highlight • Structure

Rustic path past old quarries - simply worth seeing!

Relatively small vineyard on the slope of the Hermannsberg. Nice connecting path from the hiking cross viewpoint to the Spitzberg. Unfortunately a bit noisy due to the motorway at the foot of the vineyard.

Spitzberg Summit Cross

Highlight • Summit

With 319 m summit height, the Spitzberg is not exactly a giant amongst the comparable mountains. Nevertheless, you will be rewarded after the climb with a great view of the Main Valley and the pilgrimage church Maria Limbach!

Pilgrimage Church of Maria Limbach

Highlight • Religious Site

Beautiful pilgrimage church from the 18th century, built according to the plans of Balthasar Neumann. The organ from 1756 is still in the church.
At the parish festival on the Assumption of Mary there are over 1,000 visitors.
