Located in the heart of the Steigerwald Forest, hospitality and winemaking are a tradition in Franconia. The "Zur Vollburg" inn has now been run by four generations. https://www.gasthaus-vollburg.de/

A shrine depicting the Fourteen Holy Helpers dates from 1844. Perhaps the shrine dates back to an older one donated after the Thirty Years' War.
