ladrin visited on 15th Aug 2017 - their rating: Cond: 5 Amb: 5 Access: 4 The area of Heiliger Stein is very well preserved today with great respect. There is a small partly nature chapel and the reconstructed foundation of abandoned church. Below the main stone there is a chain of spherical black stones which ends with a small circle. If I understood the information sign in german well, these black stones are modern datation and it should designate energy-relevant locations.
It was used in the medieval until the 18th century as a pilgrimage site (there are ruins of an old church and a newer chapel nearby) - and even today people are coming to this "Heiligen Stein" (holy stone)
