Siebenschneiderstein
The Siebenschneiderstein ( Low German : Söbenschniedersteen) is a boulder on the island of Rügen in Mecklenburg-Western Pomerania . It is located 22 m from the foot of the Gellort cliff on the Baltic Sea beach , one kilometer northwest of Cape Arkona . It has a mass of 165 t and a volume of 61 m³ and, like many other boulders on the island of Rügen, belongs to the legally protected geotopes .
The stone is not the largest boulder on Rügen (that is the Buskam with 600 m³), but as the fourth largest boulder on Rügen it marks the northernmost point of the island and thus eastern Germany . It consists of coarse-grained Karlshamn granite .
