The Klusfelsen is a rock outcrop in the Harz mountains near Goslar (Lower Saxony/Germany). It is 20 m high and 50 m long. It contains a room that was used as chapell in early Medieval times (Kluskapelle).
It is believed that the site might have been a pre-Christian sanctuary. Putative cup-marked stones may indicate its use since the Neolithic.
