The Krassach spring emerges as a layered spring in several small outlets at the foot of the eastern slope of the Bärental valley. The spring is close to nature and is not artificially captured. It is partially fed by an underground stream. Next to it is a resting place.

The Bärentalwächter and the associated rock gate are among the most spectacular, but also the most demanding destinations in the Bärental. Unlike the paths in the valley floor, the detour to these rock formations requires surefootedness, sturdy footwear, and ideally poles as well, as the path can be steep and slippery.

The original village, whose farms were long the property of knights and clergy, has not changed significantly in more recent times. It has two charming squares, the village square, where several streets converge, and above all the church square with the church and the mighty court linden tree. New properties are grouped around the center. https://www.altenkunstadt.de/home/ortsteile/maineck

A very interesting spring located directly on the path through the Bärental valley. Resting places in the form of benches are also available.

The town fortifications of Weismain represent a significant historical feature of the town. Approximately three-quarters of them are preserved and encircle the historic town center in a striking ring. The construction of the town wall likely took place shortly after Weismain was granted town status in 1313. The core of the current structure dates from the 14th century. In the 15th century, the fortifications were expanded, particularly with the construction of the town moat and its retaining walls. Further renovations and reinforcements were carried out in the 18th century. The wall consists primarily of local sandstone ashlar masonry, which gives the town its characteristic appearance.
