Dağ bisikleti

The Teufelsstein is a Kallmünzer, according to tradition the Teufelsstein was a pagan sacrificial site. It is also addressed as such in the relevant literature, but proof of this has not yet been provided. The table-like boulder has a length of 4 m, a width of 3 m and an average height of 1 m. On its top there are two pan-like depressions of different sizes. The v-shaped channel leading from the southern depression to the edge of the boulder seems to have been man-made. de.wikipedia.org/wiki/Teufelsstein_(Hahnbach)

The Teufelsstein is a relic rock from the former chalk cover. The sandy chalk sediments were in places bound pebbly. This resulted in very hard quartz sandstones that withstood weathering much better than the surrounding and underlying rocks. After all, they were preserved as individual blocks on much older rocks (here Dogger). Many Kallmünzer blocks were still relocated in the Quaternary by solifluction.

Until 25 years ago there were still numerous Kallmünzer blocks on the Kreuzberg. In the meantime, however, the smaller specimens in particular have been brought to the gardens in the area.
