Here is a fabulous place. Once the devil himself was supposed to have been here, an old legend tells. As evidence here lies the devil's stone not far from the road.

The Teufelsstein (also Teufelstein or Höllenstein) is a ruined high medieval rock castle at 400 m above sea level below the Pfarrweisach district of Lichtenstein in the Franconian Haßberge.
The Teufelsstein is poorly fortified on the slope of the long ridge above the Weisachtal.
The small castle could easily be shot at from the plateau.
The question arises as to why the (originally probably noble) lords of the castle did not build their fortress on the site of today's large double Lichtenstein castle, which lies just 500 m to the north on the edge of the village.
The hillside location and the proximity to Lichtenstein Castle suggest that it was an outbuilding of this castle, which was supposedly built later.
