    The White Stone below Schloss Burg an der Wupper on the left river side. The stone is not natural of this color, someone wears white pigments from time to time.
    According to legend, the knight Gerhard von Steinach, charged with Castle of Murder and Betrayal, plunged into the abyss. Allegedly unjustly charged, God should judge his fate. He ended up here unhurt.
