"... Not far from Freiersberg, on the pass, on the Bad Peterstal - Schapbach road, there is the Haghof. There people tell all kinds of things about the Hagekätherle (Katharina from Katharina). Those hikers who come late at night are particularly fond of him go from Oberwolfach over the Littweger Höhe to Bad Peterstal.

They are misled and slapped if they want to talk about the Hagekätherle or if they want to doubt its existence. The Hagekätherle had already been seen on bright day. It has a wild face, wears ragged clothes and a torn umbrella, but a beautiful rose hat.

On the way it fetches grass and doesn't answer any questions. And if you move away and look back again, you will see the Hagekätherle disappearing in a cloud of smoke. ... "

The carved figure represents the carnival figure of the "Ilwedritsche" fools' guild.
