According to legend, the 66 "pots" are said to have been created in the stone when the devil, sitting on the boulder at night, hatched malice. Lost in thought, he repeatedly pressed his thumb into the stone.

"Bowl stones, cup stones or bowl stones, often called sacrificial stones and similar in the vernacular, are usually unmoved and otherwise unprocessed stones that have supposedly artificial bowl-shaped depressions. Bowl stones are widespread. The depressions can be created naturally or incorporated by humans Their often popular interpretation is often controversial.

Duevelsteen

"South-east of Bippen in the north of Osnabrücker Land, in the immediate vicinity of a courtyard, there is a megalithic grave with a chamber size of 9 m in length. Most of the supporting stones and cap stones have been partially destroyed. In 1926, an amber chain and ceramics were found in the grave.

Just a few steps away there is a cup stone called Duevelsteen (Devil's Stone). The 175 x 115 x 110 cm granite block is no longer in its original location and has a total of 66 bowls, which have so far eluded a reliable scientific interpretation.
