Transmission tower

The Weilerskopf transmission tower is a standard telecommunications tower, or Typenturm, built in 1969.

Gebetsfelsen

The Gebetsfelsen is a rock formation on the Weilerskopf. It is a 7-metre-long, 4-metre-wide and only 1.4-metre-high monolith made of sandstone. Twelve steps have been cut into the sandstone, probably in Roman times. A Roman quarry is located in the vicinity of the Gebetsfelsen.[1]
