Rock Art in Trentino-Alto Adige
Prehistoric site with a big rock with 173 cupmarks, different lines and an astronomically oriented cross. It is one of the most beautiful pieces of rock art of the Vinschgau valley. Situated at an altitude of 940m on the "sun"-mountain (Sonnenberg) between Latsch and Kastelbell (ital.: Laces and Castelbello) it is one of more than 50 stones with cup-marks. Some meters above the Grübelplatte there are other cups on a vertical rock. There are no archaeological finds from this site, the age of the cups should be at least from the Bronze Age.
German: Die Untere Grübelplatte ist einer der schönsten Schalensteine im Vinschgau. Am Hang des Sonnenberg über der Latschander gelegen bietet sich von ihrem Standort ein Panoramablick über das Tal zwischen Kastelbell und Latsch auf eine beeindruckende Bergwelt. Insgesamt befinden sich etwa 50 Schalensteine am Sonnenberg zwischen Tschars und Goldrain, wobei dieser mit 173 Schälchen unterschiedlicher Größen, teilweise Verbindungslinien und einem astronomisch ausgerichteten Kreuz sicherlich einer der Beeindruckendsten ist. Etwas oberhalb der Grübelplatte ist ein weiterer Schalenstein zu erkennen, der vertikal aus der Erde ragt. Zu der Seite gibt es keine archäologischen Erkenntnisse bzw. keine Ausgrabung und bekannte Funde.
