    First of all: The picture was not taken by me. Source: deine-ostalb.de/2020/11/16/teufelskanzel-gschwend-rotenhar
    The hidden rock formation above Rotenhar was once a refuge in times of war and is said to have been a place of ceremonies for the "Anabaptist" sect in the Middle Ages. Today the wild and romantic Teufelskanzel is one of Gschwend's figureheads. The natural monument is located on a small side bend on the Frickenhofer Höhe cultural and landscape trail.

      The Teufelskanzel is a mystical place with a dark history. Definitely worth a short detour as a short stopover or as a break on a bike tour or hike...
