The most significant peak of the ridge stretching from the Albrechtice Valley. A wooden castle was built on the promontory at the end of the 13th century, which burned down in the early 15th century. The castle palace stood on the highest - 13m high gneiss block. Today, only the moats separating the core, the lower guard tower, and the outer bailey remain from the original castle. The rock is named after the princess from Lobkovice, who had a shelter made of wood and stone built on the rock massif (now called Josefinino sedátko). (Previously a well-known viewpoint). Climbing routes of difficulty 2-7 (according to UIAA) lead to this massif from the south.
