Druid bowl near Kornbach

The Druid Bowl stands in the middle of the forest on Riedelberg near Kornbach.

This bowl is a very special place.

During the Thirty Years' War, many residents were buried there due to the plague. That is why some call it the pestilence garden. You can even see the cemetery wall there.

The bowl has magical powers because it can predict wars: If there is no more water in the bowl, then the time has come and there will be a world war. (The bowl had been without water before WWI and WWII.)

People removed the water from the bowl, but the next day it was full again ... How this could happen cannot be explained, because it has no natural inlet and outlet.

So watch out if you go there;)
