      Small cave like some others that were carved into the sandstone!

        At the entrance you can admire the small rooms of the cave.

              In 1766, the Bayreuth Privy Councilor and Chief Forester Ernst Georg Spiegel von und zu Peckelsheim had a column of honor erected in honor of his cousin E. L. Ch. Spiegel, Freiherr zum Desenberg near the highest peak of the Spiegelsberge, the Heinrichshöhe.
              The base is formed by a hill stabilized by sandstone masonry.
              With a little imagination, one can see heavily weathered relief depictions of a faun or satyr holding a bunch of grapes (Bacchus?) on the front of the retaining wall ring.
              The actual monument consists of a pedestal and a high column, which carries an Ionic chapter with a spherical crown.
