Forst in Unterfranken is a village in the Schonungen municipality that is in Schweinfurt.

Geography

Forst is about 1/2 mile just north of the Main river along the southern north edge of the Main river valley. At 923 ft (284m) above sea level, it is about 227 ft (70m) above the river. Many new houses have been built, except in the old village center, due to the great view into the valley. The expansion largely took place to the west towards Schonungen.
