The stone dumps of the Steinsburg on the Kleiner Gleichberg near Römhild in Thuringia are a sea of volcanic rock formed by the eroding basalt blocks of the former volcano. They line the slopes of the basalt cones and are a typical feature of the crumbling volcanic ruins of the Gleichberg Mountains. The term "Steinsburg" probably derives from these large stone fields surrounding the mountain plateau. In Celtic times, these basalt blocks were used to build dry-stone walls for the oppidum (hilltop settlement) built around the mountain.

After completing the climb, you can sit on this bench and gaze directly at Römhild and the Großer Gleichberg, which seems almost dwarfed from here. Regardless, the view is unique. 🤩

Very interesting, well laid out and therefore recommendable.

Probably a former guardhouse.

Be careful at the edge!!!

On the information boards you can learn a lot about the largest Celtic settlement in Central Germany, the Steinsburg

The Steinsburg Museum is a branch of the Thuringian Museum of Prehistory and Early History in Weimar. It presents the prehistory and early history of southern Thuringia, particularly that of the Gleichberg region, and thus offers fascinating insights into the economic and cultural life of the former Celtic settlement.
