    Very beautiful and extraordinary rock formation. Invites you to climb and / or linger. If you are interested in the history, you can read the signs directly, for example, at the parking lot.

      The "Hollow Stone" is also called Pfarrfelsen and this name indicates the early hour of Christianization in this place. The (Celts) way was already used in the Middle Ages by the trading Jews.

        In the middle of the plateau stands the "Hollow Stone". This rock formation has its name from the half cave, which invites you to climb into it. But beware: the stone is quite slippery at this point!
        Nearby you will find an indication of an early age
        Bandkeramische settlement (about 5.600 - 5.000 v. Chr.). No wonder people have always gathered around this place.
