Highlight • Religious Site

The church tower clock has a beautiful clock face, which is very rare in Franconia.

In the church, several old gravestones can be found on the walls as decoration.

Could they be from the time of the old moated castle?

After the stormy nights when "Ylenia" and "Zeynep" swept across the country, I was looking for a route that doesn't lead through forests. The choice then fell on Pommersfelden (district of Bamberg).
