Jungfernsprung
The Jungfernsprung, is a precipitous rock formation in the small German town of Dahn in the county of Südwestpfalz. The rocks tower above the town by around 70 metres and are crowned by a type of summit cross at a height of . The rocks is the symbol of the town and the subject of an ancient legend from which it derives its name: Jungfernsprung means "maiden's leap".
== Location and structure ==
The Jungfernsprung lies in the eastern part of the borough. Its west and north faces rise, steep and ruggedly, from the slopes on the left-hand side of the Wieslauter valley, whilst the residential area of Dahn spreads out southwest of the rocks on both sides of its base.
The rocks belong to the many bunter sandstone formations, typical of the Wasgau region, the southern part of the Palatine Forest in Germany and the northern part of the Vosges in France. Because the area around Dahn is especially rich in such rock features it is also called the Dahner Felsenland ("Dahn Rock Country"). The Jungfernsprung – like other rock formations in the region – is a harder rock that has withstood erosion better than the surrounding softer material.
