The historic old town is surrounded by a well-preserved town wall and offers numerous special features such as the market square with its half-timbered houses or Eyrichshof Castle.

The many museums, churches and monuments in the region provide cultural highlights. A special highlight are the annual festivals such as the Medieval Festival or the Christmas Market, where you can sample regional products.

Culinary Seßlach also has a lot to offer: Here you can find traditional dishes from Franconia such as bratwursts or beer from the local brewery. Those who like sweets should definitely take a look at the famous "Seßlacher Zuckerstangen".

In summer, hikes through the picturesque landscape around Seßlach are inviting - everyone will find their favourite route here! In winter, skiers and snowboarders can test their skills on the slopes of the nearby ski resort.
