Note: The mentioned rock spur "Teufels- oder Hexenkänzeli" is about 200-300 m west of Chindlistein and is a separate object. At this point here is "just" the "Chindlistei".

The Chindlistein is located at 940m and is popularly called the Felspur also called Teufelskänzeli or Hexenkänzeli. Both go back to the time of the Appenzeller witch hunt from the 14th to 17th centuries.

There are many other legends about the stone, for example, it is said to have helped women to become fertile. There are other dark legends, and children are said to have been hidden in the holes.

On my BLOG there is more information about this energetic power place. indicis.ch
