    Text on the stone: "At this point two brothers killed each other over a bowl of mashed potatoes."

    Two poor brothers cut wood at this point. For lunch they had a bowl of mashed potatoes. When they were hungry, the two brothers quarreled about the contents of the bowl. They beat each other until they died.

    Another source says that the two brothers fell in love with the same girl while dancing in Schöneck. When they noticed this, they saw each other as rivals from then on. When they once again went to Schöneck to dance, their argument about the girl escalated so much that they beat each other until they were dead. (after the local poet Willy Rudert)
