The name of the stone does not derive from the color, but from the meaning of the old German word bliuwan, i.e. bleuen (like bleuen), beat off. A blue stone is therefore a "bloody stone" on which court judgments were carried out in pre-Christian times. An oak, beech or linden tree and the blue stone, which is considered sacred, stood in the center of the court Judgment bumped into this stone three times.
