      Opposite the Geringsberge between Lauter and Neuwelt, the completely bare Teufelsstein rises on the right bank of the Schwarzwasser, which can be easily reached in five minutes from the Lauter stop. According to some people, the name Teufelsstein is distorted and is actually “baptismal font” because there was said to have been a baptismal font or font here in ancient times. Another legend, however, describes the Devil's Stone as a cursed castle, which hides precious treasures inside and waits from year to year for the day of its redemption from the hand of "evil" and the recovery of its rich wealth - but so far in vain. It still lies enchanted beneath mighty boulders. Although a key, through whose wonderful power the hidden entrances open irresistibly, exists, it has not yet been revealed to anyone
      managed to get in...

        ....The key is a yellow flower that sprouts anew every spring and unfolds its magical cup. A shepherd from Beierfeld, who grazed his flock there many years ago, found them one day and picked them. He soon noticed how a crack in the rock mysteriously opened up near him, and in amazement he looked into a cave, from the background of which a magical shimmer of gold looked back at him. However, since he did not heed the warning of the bearded guard with a gray hat sitting at the entrance to remain quiet, but instead uttered a loud exclamation of astonishment, the opening closed just as mysteriously and quickly and has not yet reopened to this day.
