According to the old legend, the following story happened here: The Schlossfreulich Adelheid donated a large sum of money for the church in Kalchreuth. This angered the devil so much that he wanted to hit her with a boulder. However, Adelheid clasped her hands in prayer so that only a piece of the rock broke out. According to legend, maidens will find a husband in the same year if they sit down in the rock cavity.

Mega trails, but be careful the Reichswald has always been a military training area, so you never know what is lying around or who is controlling it, because you are only allowed to stay on the paths. Since August 2020 there have been more controls ...
