The 14 m high lonely standing "Purzelstein" on the outskirts of Drosendorf is a climbing rock in the Aufseßtal. His name may have arisen because of its shape, which might be believed to be on the verge of falling over. On the distinctive tower, a stone-age arrowhead was found, which makes it very likely one of the earliest climbed rocks of the Frankenjura.

Very distinctive, stand-alone rock, which has stood out properly since its exposure.
