Rocksdorf, Rural settlement in Upper Palatinate, Bavaria, Germany.

Rocksdorf lies north of Sulzbürg at 408 meters elevation, featuring traditional Bavarian architecture and surrounding forests for outdoor activities.

The settlement dates back to 1129, and archaeologists discovered a Bronze Age burial mound containing a fibula near the village location.

The Protestant Church of Saint Elisabeth stands as a central religious landmark, displaying Romanesque walls and a vaulted choir section.

Local roads connect Rocksdorf to State Road 2220 between Wettenhofen and Federal Highway 299, with Nuremberg Airport located 26 miles away.

The village transformed from being part of Kruppach municipality in 1818 to joining Mühlhausen municipality during the 1972 administrative reforms.
