The boulder is called “Pîre al marède”. Marède comes from the Old French "marende", Latin "marenda" and refers to a meal that was usually eaten at 4 or 5 o'clock in the afternoon.

According to legend, this large boulder on the banks of the river Statte represents the table on which the farmers placed baskets of food for the goblins in gratitude for the work that these small, skilled dwarves who lived here did: re-galvanizing the pots, re-soling the shoes, etc. (Plaque on the boulder)
