Staffelberg, Mountain and geotope in Bad Staffelstein, Germany

The Staffelberg rises 539 meters above sea level, stretching 150 meters in length and 200 meters in width in the Franconian Switzerland region.

During the La Tène period, the Celtic settlement of Menosgada established itself on the plateau, marking the beginning of human habitation in the area.

The Adelgundiskapelle chapel at the summit provides a spiritual destination while offering views across the Main valley and surrounding landscapes.

Visitors can access the site through designated parking areas in Bad Staffelstein, with wheelchair-accessible paths leading to various observation points.

The geological formations of Staffelberg reveal a complete Jurassic profile, from Lower Dogger to Malm, documenting 200 million years of Earth's history.
