Teufelskanzel Rock Formation

The "Teufelskanzel" is located near Gschwend (Rotenhar), Ostalbkreis, Baden-Württemberg
- natural monument
- on the "Frickenhofer Höhe" culture and landscape trail
- Typical layered cave made of layers of sandstone of different hardness
- with a waterfall step, over which water can fall in heavy rainfall
- The pulpit-like impression is created by grotto-like cavities and pillar-like supports
- Myth: because of the shape of the pulpit, the so-called “Anabaptists”, a sect, are said to have met there for meetings and sermons in the 16th century.

The Teufelskanzel is worth a short detour, but please with good shoes!

As at the Geiststein or Teufelstein, the Anabaptists (a sect) met there for their meetings in the 16th century and listened to the sermons of their leaders there.
