    According to legend, the devil here turned a peasant woman into stone in the field because she did not want to give him your soul.

    The Giksmutter is one of the few free-standing rock formations in the vicinity. It is afflicted with the legend shown.
    The actual rock is about 20m behind the information board and is mostly covered by thick foliage in summer.
