Upper Gate (Bamberg Gate), Haßfurt

Highlight • Monument

If you come from the upper suburb, in which the chapel is located, you can reach the old town of Hassfurt through the upper tower. Since this is the arterial road to Bamberg, it is also known as the Bamberg Tower. According to the information, the rectangular tower was built before the year 1230 and increased several times in the years up to 1540 to a total of approx. 39 m and was formerly part of the city wall. In the meantime, the gate can only be driven out of the city, but the passage is still quite narrow.

Highlight • Religious Site

The chapel in Haßfurt is a symbol of the city and one of the most important late Gothic buildings in Lower Franconia. The choir of the sacred building is surrounded by a triple coat of arms frieze with a total of 248 medieval heraldic shields. You should definitely take a look at that.

Birdwatching Tower Mainaue bei Augsfeld

Highlight • Viewpoint

From the observation tower on the Sichelsee you have a great view of the Großer Wörth, Landwehrgraben and Sichelsee. In every season you can observe different species of birds here. Some of them, like the green shank or the shoveler, are just passing through. Others, like the gray heron and cormorant, stay here all the time. You can find information about the species at the tower.
