    The old Leuchtenberg cult site "Hoher Stein" is a large granite block into which a cross has been worked. Presumably it was an earlier pagan place of worship. Worth seeing. Next to it is a stone pillar with a cross relief (probably from the 17th century), probably an old sign of the Leuchtenberg landgrave.
