Berglitzl, Archaeological site in Langenstein, Austria.
Located at a former eastern edge of the Gusen River's mouth into the Danube, Berglitzl features steep granite rock faces rising 13 meters above ground level.
The site contains artifacts spanning five millennia, including Upper Paleolithic granite pavements from Aurignacian period and Mesolithic worksite materials dating back to 12,000 BC.
Excavations revealed multiple ritual areas with sacrificial pits and ceremonial structures, indicating continuous sacred activities from Mesolithic times through the 10th century AD.
