Bad Staffelstein

Bad Staffelstein is best known within Bavaria for the Basilica of Vierzehnheiligen, Balthasar Neumann’s Rococo pilgrimage church. The town lies on the Main in Upper Franconia, beneath the distinctive limestone plateau of the Staffelberg. Across the river valley, Kloster Banz rises above the countryside; its former Benedictine abbey church is another significant Baroque landmark. These hilltop ensembles reflect the region’s Catholic pilgrimage tradition and give this small spa town an architectural presence beyond its size. Obermain Therme uses local thermal brine.
