Teufelstein, Mountain summit in Fulda, Germany

The Teufelstein reaches 729.4 meters in height and features distinctive rock formations made of phonolite, forming hexagonal columns near its peak.

The mountain contains a collection of Celtic and Roman markings, including sun wheels and runes, indicating ancient settlement activities in the region.

Local narratives tell of a contest between a resident and the devil, resulting in the mountain's name, which translates to Devil's Stone.

Visitors can access the mountain through hiking paths from the parking area along Federal Road 458, leading through the Hessian Rhön Nature Park.

The summit stands at the watershed between the Fulda and Werra rivers, with rock formations designated as natural monuments by Fulda district authorities.
