Abstract

The problematic crystalline complexes of the Saxon intermediate massif and of the gneiss massif of Münchberg in NE Bavaria, which appear abruptly in the Paleozoic series of a large synclinorium of the Saxothuringian zone in the German Variscan mountains, can be interpreted in the light of modern data and methods as pre-Variscan intruded laccolithic complexes which were altered into gneiss and sheared out divergently as autochthonous klippes in Variscan time.
