On the Staffelberg there are four so-called "patriarchal crosses" or weather crosses, one in each direction. From the Staffelberg you have a wonderful all-round view, because with its 539 m it towers over the Obermaintal below by more than 250 m, which gives it an impressive impression. The name of the elevation is derived from the distinctive terrain levels ("seasons"). The Franconian flag flies on the north side of the Staffelberg, the mountain of the Franks.
