A beautiful view from the local mountain of Görlitz

The Großer Berg, together with the Spitze Berg, forms a connected basalt ceiling remnant. On the southern slope there is an approximately 400 square meter block heap made of basalt blocks, which is called the Stone Sea. It is assumed that these are remnants of weathering from the Weichselian glaciation in the Pleistocene. Furthermore, the back and southern slope of the mountain are covered by a thick layer of loess.

The so-called "Abandoned Cross" is enthroned on top of the rocky outcrop, in the rock a little below it a holy figure was also placed in a small grotto/niche formed by a rocky outcrop. This is probably a statue of the Mother of God.

Very nice bike path

Very nice area with basalt blocks, which are partly covered by lichen and moss and spread a touch of Scandinavia. Great view of the surrounding cone mountains.

On the northern slope of the Sonnenhübel, phonolite plates protrude through the ground, which are known as Steinklunsen, Steinklunsten or simply Klunsen, similar to the Steinklunsen near Beiersdorf. Together with the Birkberg and the Geiersberg, these rock formations on the Sonnenhübel form an outpouring and the eastern edge of the Oderwitz Basin. Coarse weathering debris from these slabs, together with nutrient-poor Ranker brown soil, covers the upper slopes of the mountain. On the lower slopes there is also occasional phonolite rubble, but due to a loess loam layer and the influence of backwater there are also brown earths with a medium nutrient content such as Pseudogley.

Sun sanctuary of Upper Lusatia. A legend tells of Prince Wenzelslaus. When the city of Zittau still belonged to the Kingdom of Bohemia, a gentle, wise king ruled there; he left behind an underage prince who was not begrudge the crown by a false uncle. He announced that the prince had had an accident while hunting in the forest, and boldly put the crown on his head. But secretly he had hired assassins to kill the prince, but they took pity on him and released him. He escaped and begged his way to Zittau, where a wealthy shoemaker took care of the poor boy who came up to him. He was doubtful whether he should really take him for a prince and therefore kept wisely silent, but he loved the boy like a father, taught him his trade and had him instructed in more sciences than a shoemaker needs. So some years passed, the Bohemians were oppressed by their illegitimate king and were tired of his rule. Now the exiled prince decided it was time to show himself to the people. The news spread that Prince Wenzeslaus, as the banished prince was legally called, was still alive and had become a courageous, brave prince. Many people flocked to him, and when they saw him and recognized his resemblance to his dead father, they proclaimed him king. The place where this happened, between Zittau and the later added town of Herrnhut, is still called the Königsholz [234] and the house where the shoemaker lived then still has a gilded crown carved in stone over the door.
