The rock - an outcrop in the banded slates of the Ernestgrüner-Neualbenreuther ore formation - shows an alternating storage of formerly clayey and sandy sedimentation. The weathering intervened in the fractures caused by fissuring and shale and created a trapezoidal rock. Its shape is reminiscent of a frog, which gave it its name.
