    The mountain owes its name to a legend about the "Giant Mils", who is said to have wreaked havoc here in association with the devil. Saint Gangolf is said to have finally defeated him, whereupon the "Giant Mils" killed himself. The devil finally covered the corpse with stones - this is today's Milseburg.
