View of the rose quartz rock

Highlight • Natural Monument

The mighty Kreuzberg, a 38-meter-high rock made of rose quartz, is one of Bavaria's 100 most beautiful geotopes. This "quartz reef" is the remnant of a formerly large zoned pegmatite stick. Weathering has extracted millions of hard quartz millions of years into a fascinating example of geological formations. At no other location in the near or distant surroundings is a similar residual pegmatite known or accessible.

Kreuzberg Church in Pleystein

Highlight • Religious Site

The location of the pilgrimage church could not be more impressive: it stands on a massive quartz rock stick in the middle of Pleystein. The rock is designated as a natural monument. The first Kreuzberg church was built in 1814, but burned down in 1901. The reconstruction of the baroque style church was completed in 1908.
