    Sugenheim, July 2010
    What I still know about our sandstone reed and its processing
    Quarries in the upper Ehegrund were to be found:
    in Krassolzheim the "Nenzenheimer Steinbruch" and
    in Deutenheim the "Ezelheimer Steinbruch".
    In Sugenheim, the majority of the quarry belonged to the municipality, the
    right side but the Gackstetter family.
    Then there was a quarry in Ullstadt and in Obernesselbach
    the best known, with a wooden tower and a trigonometric point.
    Obernesselbacher whetstones were delivered to America. In
    Ullstadt was a well-known larger stone carving company called Jetzler that
    delivered whole house gables to cities.
    These stone carvers often blasphemed the pastor until he once did
    made the following statement from the pulpit: "The stones are raw
    and those they have hewn are even rougher, they only call me Gallach
    (Hebrew for priest, editor's note) and my cook, poor one
    Thing, the Gallach-Schickse. "
