Pilgrimage Church of Maria im Sand (Dettelbach)

Highlight • Religious Site

The pilgrimage legend reports that in 1504 Nikolaus Lemmer from Melkendorf near Bamberg, who was wounded after a quarrel and therefore bedridden, had an apparition in which a figure asked him to hold a small wooden pietà on a wayside shrine with a candle. to visit at Dettelbach. He made a vow and got well again. In 1506 the first chapel was built on this site and the first pilgrimages began. However, these end abruptly in the Reformation period. In the course of the Counter Reformation, the pilgrimages are revived. Today, Dettelbach is one of the most important pilgrimage sites in the Diocese of Würzburg with around 80 pilgrimages registered each year (approx. 8000 pilgrims). The catchment area of the pilgrimages extends into the Rhön, the Odenwald and the Bamberg area.

Neuses am Berg Village

Highlight • Settlement

Neuses am Berg is a small wine-growing village in the heart of the Franconian wine country on the Mainschleife. Neuses am Berg was first mentioned in a document in 1262. The village is home to several wine-growing businesses and offers the hiker an interesting tour with the meditation path "Bible, Wine and Wisdom", where one can learn that much in nature can be transferred to the coexistence of people through parables. It is not uncommon for people to reach their limits when it comes to making use of nature. Growth and prosperity were not in his hands alone. Numerous stories and quotations from the Bible are still present in the everyday life of the rural population. If you look it up, you will find over 200 wine-specific passages in the Bible.

Viewpoint at Neuseser Glatze

Highlight • Viewpoint

It is worth taking a look at the viewing platform in the direction of Neuses. The Glatzenberg with the Neuseser Glatze vineyards captivates with its colorful facets. The Vogelsburg, which lies above the Franconian wine town of Volkach, is visible from afar and the view extends far as far as the Mainschleife.

Beautiful view of the wine island, with a view of the "Katzenkopf" vineyard and the Kreuzberg in the background. It is the highest elevation on the island (288m). You also have a view of the Mainaue between Sommerach and Köhler.
