Schirndinger Pass, Mountain pass in eastern Selb-Wunsiedel plateau, Germany.
The Schirndinger Pass reaches an elevation of 450 meters and creates a natural connection between the Bohemian Basin and Fichtelgebirge mountains.
In 1061, the pass formed part of an essential trade route connecting Nuremberg to Eger through Creussen, facilitating regional commerce.
The pass location influenced the construction of Hohenberg Castle, which stands 125 meters above the Eger River on a rocky outcrop.
Federal road B303 and the Nuremberg-Cheb railway line run parallel to the pass, providing direct transportation routes through the region.
The Röslau River separates the Selber Forest in the north from the Kohlwald forest in the south near the pass location.
