    Tips

    The Devil's Stone is located on the top of the mountain of the same name. He has clear traces of editing and probably served in earlier times as a cult object.
    Hewn steps lead up to where there is a depression. It is interpreted as a sacrificial bowl for religious rites of the Celts. A blood groove runs down next to the steps.
    There are also various carved symbols on the rock: sun wheels, runes, Roman numerals and symbols reminiscent of 12th and 13th century stonemasons.
