Röthelstein Open-Air Stage

Highlight • Structure

The Röthelstein, which was then called "Roteißenstein", was mentioned in a document as early as 1582. Since 1953, the Whitsunday, known far beyond the borders of the Vogtland, has taken place on the Röthelstein every year.

The striking quartzite rock rises up like a guard. If you hike high, you can enjoy a great view. The Röthelstein natural stage is at its foot: beerheide-vogtland.de/tourismus/naturbuehne_roethelstein/index.php.
