Stone table (rocks)
Table -shaped rocks formed by erosion are sometimes referred to as stone tables . They arose as erosion remains in stratified rock . They are made up of a leg and the tabletop resting on it. The table top consists of a more resistant stone. The layer package below was more heavily eroded.
Stone tables are known from the Palatinate Forest . One example is the stone table on the Hohe Derst , the highest mountain in the Mundat Forest . The Hinterweidenthaler Teufelstisch near Kaltenbach is also one of the stone tables. With the Wolf table above Hitzelrode in the Werra-Meißner district, there is also a stone table in the shell limestone . Another example is the Teufelstisch at the Großer Waldstein in the Fichtelgebirge .
