In 1960, a granite boulder was discovered during construction work in the Lohe district.
It broke apart during the salvage work, so that today the boulder is in several pieces on the edge of the "Siekertal" green area, a reminder of the Ice Age. Around 200,000 years ago, the colossus migrated to us from Scandinavia. For this reason, it was given the name "Swedish stones".
