    The saga of how the Devil's Bridge got its name in the Deister:
    According to the old story, a hunter was hunting there and killed a magnificent stag. Unfortunately, a raging brook separated him and his prey. He couldn't get to the stag he had killed and cursed so roughly that the devil showed himself. The latter offered him a deal: the devil would build a bridge over the brook, but he would take the hunter with him into his kingdom if he should mention his name again. The hunter agreed, eager for his prey. The devil then formed a bridge over the stream so that the hunter could cross the stream and get his prey. He carried the stag to the castle in Rodenberg.


    Some time passed. At some point the hunter boasted about his story in the village pub in Rodenberg and said he had cheated the devil. Then the earth opened up. The horned man appeared and dragged the hunter down with him into hell. The hunter was never seen again. But the Devil's Bridge has had her name since that night.

      The Teufelsbrücke Bridge is a small wooden bridge, next to which is the Teufelsbrücke forest restaurant. Dogs are welcome. In summer you can also sit outside.
