        The "Lazy Hunter" is a 6 m high sacrificial stone and has a circumference of 24 m. It is said that the pagan Saxons worshiped their supreme god Wodan at this point. At fixed times, the old Saxons from all over the area met here and offered sacrifices .
        Another legend tells that the stone is said to have been given the name "Lazy Hunter" because a sentry there allowed the enemy to take it by surprise.
