The Barbarossastein is a monument dedicated to the Staufer Emperor Friedrich I. Barbarossa (1152–1190) in the Lauratal near Weingarten in the Ravensburg district. It is located on the district of the city of Ravensburg near the border with the city of Weingarten and the municipality of Schlier.

According to an old folk tale, Friedrich Barbarossa was born on Haslachburg above Lauratal. In 1907, this legend was picked up by the Weingarten local group of the Swabian Alb Association. Donations for a Barbarossa monument were started. When there was enough money in 1909, a huge boulder with ten horses was carted from Vogt to Lauratal to where Haslachburg used to be. The boulder was placed on a concrete base and provided with a relief portrait of Barbarossa. He also received a plaque on which this poem can be read:

Hikers stop!
This stone announces
from ancient folk tales,
faithful to this day
special miss still lie:
Here stood Barbarossa's cradle,
also Emperor Charlemagne
stayed here with his hawser,
in the round of lively elves
on the Haslachburg of the Welfen.
The Barbarossa stone was inaugurated on June 19, 1910.
