The ''Heldburger Gangschar'' is a Cenozoic volcanic system in the Franconian parts of southern Thuringia and northern Bavaria. The term ''Gangschar'' refers to the fact that few of the volcanoes have retained their characteristic topographical shape, rather their former activity can be detected by filled fissures known as ''Gänge'' ("() veins"). These veins are mostly oriented in south-southwest direction, their cross-section is often less than one metre wide. The ''Heldburger Gangschar is named after the small settlement of Heldburg, part of the borough of Bad Colberg-Heldburg. The surrounding area, the Heldburger Land, belongs entirely to the northern part of the volcanic zone. The most impressive of the surviving volcanic cones by far are the twin peaks of the Gleichberge, 641 metres and 679 metres high, in nearby Heldburger Land. == Location ==
The ''Heldburger Gangschar'' is not a self-contained landscape and is distributed mainly over the main physiographic units Grabfeld, Itz-Baunach Hill Country and Haßberge Hills. South of the river Main their former activity is also detectable in the northern Steigerwald and Franconian Jura. Its core zone extends from Hildburghausen to Gerolzhofen.
