Communication Tower (Middle Franconia)

Highlight • Structure

The mast is securely anchored, because the winds blow stronger up here than in the valley.

Tip by

As a witness mountain (a single mountain in a layered landscape) of the Franconian Jura, the Hesselberg is geologically closely related to the Staffelberg (Lichtenfels district) or the Walberla (Forchheim district).
