The Kreuzberg is considered the "Holy Mountain of the Franconians". The highest elevation in the Bavarian Rhön at 928 meters is known not only as a pilgrimage site but also for the world-famous Kreuzberg beer, which is produced in the monastery brewery located on the mountain and can be enjoyed in the cozy monastery tavern with all sorts of regional delicacies.

You have to climb up there, meter by meter, but it's worth it.

The Arnsberg is located northwest of the Kreuzberg in the Bavarian Rhön. It is a striking and widely visible mountain, 842 m high, which belongs to the natural area of the Hohe Rhön. To the northwest, there is a steep slope that is sparsely vegetated. The last stretch to the summit forms a small, steep knoll. At the top, you will find a pile of piled-up basalt boulders and one of the most beautiful viewing benches in the Rhön with a magnificent view of the Kreuzberg and the Himmeldunk. On the calcareous grasslands of the Arnsberg, numerous protected silver thistles can be found in autumn. The steep slope is popular with paragliders and model aircraft flyers.

The Bergwacht (BW) Bischofsheim, formerly Bergwacht Bad Neustadt, was established on 29.06.1969 as the first BW unit in the Rhön. The primary area of operation is located in the municipality of Bischofsheim a.d. Rhön with the area around Kreuzberg, Arnsberg and the Salzpforten up to Bad Neustadt, as well as parts of the Hochrhön. As part of the preventive service in winter, we look after the ski area on Kreuzberg and the cross-country ski trails there, and in summer you will often find us during the preventive service at the Kreuzbergschanzen in Haselbach. Our main areas of operation are primarily injured outdoor sports enthusiasts such as skiers, snowboarders, paragliders, mountain bikers, hikers, but also injured forestry workers and the search for missing persons. We carry out nature conservation services in the "Langen Rhön". The main focus is the annual mowing of lupins.

The Kreuzberg is the biggest visitor magnet in the Bavarian Rhön. All year round, the Franciscan monastery Kreuzberg with its monastery beer attracts holidaymakers from near and far to the Holy Mountain of the Franconians. After a strengthening meal in the monastery tavern, the ascent to the summit of the Kreuzberg can be managed, from where you get a magnificent view into the Southern Rhön, the Hessian Rhön and the Thuringian Forest.
