The "Berggasthof Moritzberg" on the summit of Moritzberg is a quaint restaurant right next to the 600 year old Mauritius chapel and the Hindenburg tower, offering all kinds of Franconian delicacies, coffee and cake. The prices are fair, the portions are tidy and the service is brisk and nice. In summer you can enjoy your "Radlerhalbe" in the beautiful beer garden.

St Maurice's Chapel (Moritzberg)

Highlight • Religious Site

On the summit of Moritzberg stands the mountain chapel dedicated to St. Maurice, built in 1419 and commissioned by Nuremberg patrician Herdegen Valzner. In addition, he had a brother house built, in which a hermit lived, who performed his prayers in the St. Mauritius chapel.

Promilleweg 1972

Highlight • Trail

For fit hikers there is still the Promilleweg 1972 from Schönberg. This climb is sometimes quite steep, but not too long. The Promilleweg takes its name from the Schönberg "churchgoers" who, after visiting the church and having a morning pint, made their way home in the evening.
