Arrive in Kronach — the Cranach town beneath Festung Rosenberg at the foot of the Frankenwald — with a private fixed-price transfer from Frankfurt Airport (FRA).

Kronach, the birthplace of Lucas Cranach the Elder, sits at the foot of the Frankenwald where the Haßlach, the Kronach and the Rodach rivers meet. Its walled upper town, the Obere Stadt, climbs a rocky spur to Festung Rosenberg, one of the best-preserved fortresses in Germany, which held a young Captain Charles de Gaulle as a prisoner of war in 1917 and now houses the Fränkische Galerie with four paintings by Cranach himself. The largest employer is the Dr. Schneider group, which makes plastic components for carmakers, and the television brand Loewe has been based here since 1945. Kronach is also a small university town thanks to the Lucas-Cranach-Campus, where Hochschule Coburg teaches, and Coburg is 35 km away by road.
