The sea of rocks does not wrongly carry its name. On the Reichenbach side, it is covered all over with mighty granite blocks, which are so close together in some places that the viewer gets the impression that the waves of a sea lashed by the storm have frozen as if by magic and turned to stone

The Felsenmeer is one of the most impressive geotopes in the UNESCO Geopark or Geo-Nature Park Bergstrasse-Odenwald and, having been designated a National Geotope in 2006, is one of the most important geological sights in Germany. It is just over 2 km long and up to 100 m wide and extends over a height of around 200 meters. The Felsenmeer was already used by the Romans and later by local stonemasons to extract stone. The stonemasons called the quartz diorite "Felsberg granite." Source: de.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Felsenmeer_(Lautertal)
