Interesting rock formation with the Karasekhöhle.

The White Stone marks a regional geological feature. Here, a rock formation consisting of a quartz vein emerges, striking for its atypical white color.

This formation is also known as the Karasek Cave, named after the robber captain Johannes Karasek. This is said to have been the meeting place of the gang before and after several raids. While the robber captain actually existed, legend has it that his treasure, which has not yet been found, is hidden at this location.

The story of the robber captain and information on the geology can be found in the Karasek Museum in Seifhennersdorf.

Coming from Großschönau, it's worth taking a detour about 300 meters from the road and then continuing on to the Karasek Museum.
