Historic Village Center of Rieth

Highlight • Historical Site

Rieth has received several awards as the most beautiful village. The corresponding award plaques or panels are located on the outside wall of the local history museum next to house no. 55.
The fortified church and its surroundings with the old and new school, as well as the village center with the brewery, bakery, house no. 55 itself, the tithe barn and the inn form the historical core. It's worth a visit.

Former Inner German Border

Highlight • Historical Site

The new monument consists of the seven letters of the word UNITY and stands at the former Thuringia-Bavaria border crossing, directly on Kolonnenweg. The steel letters were made by the MCR company in Römhild and placed in a slight circle. The surrounding area is currently being completed and will be officially inaugurated on October 3, 2023. This will enhance the square here on the former border and will certainly attract many interested parties. With the existing information boards right next to it, the new monument creates an appealing overall picture. 34 years after the fall of the Berlin Wall, a worthy place of remembrance has been created.

Hartleb Brewery Inn

Highlight • Pub

The Hartleb brewery produces the good Franconian beer 🍺 itself, which is also particularly popular at private celebrations. Then there was the food, a dream. If you don't stop there at the end of the tour, you're probably in a hurry and missing out.

Rehberg

Highlight • Viewpoint

From here the view goes over Maroldsweisach to the Zeilberg, which is also a very nice destination by bike or on foot. The short detour from the cycle path here is worthwhile, a seat invites you to linger.
