Rocks from the Cambrian period over 500 million years ago
A rocky cliff that is somewhat hidden on Lerchenbühl near Neualbenreuth is textbook-like. ...
Typical of the Stiftland, there is a flat rock sequence here. It consists of quartzites (thick banks) alternating with mica schists (thin layers).

The sequence emerged from deposits in a marine area.

Interesting rock on the edge of the geotope with a view over the chain of hills from Tillenberg to Heidelberg.
