    Formation of granite rocks with a viewpoint on top. Until 1805, the Karlstein marked a quadrilateral area where the states of Baden and Württemberg as well as the Fürstenbergische and Vorderösterreichischen possessions met each other.

        The Karlstein is a rock formation in the Black Forest near Hornberg. It is 969 m high and was the highest elevation of Alt-Wurttemberg. From here you have a wonderful view.
