Calvary Monument at Volkersberg

Highlight • Monument

High above the village of Volkers stands the former Volkersberg Monastery. A pilgrimage site existed here as early as 1378. A Franciscan monastery was founded to care for the pilgrims; it existed from 1658 to 1966. Today, it houses an educational center of the Diocese of Würzburg.

The pilgrimage church of the Holy Cross was built starting in 1664 and had already been endowed with a relic of the True Cross in 1659. Its furnishings, including three altars, are Baroque.

The former monastery church is now the parish church of Volkers.

Saatguthütte Mittelberg

Highlight • Mountain Hut

Very nice hut with seating and spacious parking space. I assume that the hut is owned by the Bavarian State Forests.
