A very pleasant rest area at the Holzhausen/Pfändhausen/Hambach intersection, featuring a cross-bearer. A cross-bearer (also known as a cross-carrying figure or cross-slinger; colloquially called a cross-beater or cross-sleeper[1]) is a depiction of Christ carrying the cross as a freestanding figure. This distinctive form of wayside shrine, which emerged in the 17th century, is particularly widespread in Franconia and is a prominent feature of the landscape, especially in the Catholic dioceses of Bamberg and Würzburg.

A beautiful path leads all the way around Lower Franconia's largest lake. The lake is a great place for a break. You can grab a snack at the kiosk and, if the weather's nice, sit on the sandy beach.

Although three gatehouses narrow the access roads, they are not towering, defensive towers. The Bad- or Lendershäuser Tor, the Weth- or Großmannsdorfer Tor, and the Obertor were probably no longer intended for defensive purposes when they were built in the second decade of the 18th century, but rather as customs and inspection posts.
