Hassfurt is a city on Main and lies on the edge of the Hatred Mountains in the eastern Lower Franconia. The place is also the district town of the district named after the low mountain range. The place name becomes with a short a spoken as with hatred, but historically has just as little to do with hatred as with the hare in the local coat of arms, but with fog.
background
Haßfurt was first mentioned in a document in 1230, has had city rights since 1243 and belonged to the Würzburg monastery until the secularization in 1802. Then the city and the Lower Franconia region became part of Bavaria. The two towers originally built in the 13th century still characterize the largely undamaged cityscape.
