Tips from the Community

ANGELIKA
February 22, 2026, Weissbild Chapel

The "Weissbildkapelle" (White Image Chapel) above Fridritt is a small wayside chapel/place of worship. It lies on the path between Fridritt and Maria Bildhausen and is part of a hiking/pilgrimage route. It offers views, places to rest, and is popular with walkers and worshippers exploring the Franconian Marian Way or local trails. The chapel is more of a local wayside chapel/place of worship and is not a major historical monument with a comprehensive history – it is considered an agricultural/nature-oriented place for reflection and rest.

This rest area is a bit next to the Extratour Strahlen, but could easily be intrigued, with a small sign
