    According to legend, Barbarossa once camped here with his entourage. They were attacked by the knights of the Ronneburg. Farmers from the area rushed to the emperor's aid, armed with flails and pitchforks, and defeated the attackers. In gratitude, the emperor granted the peasants great liberties. Even today, the place is recommended to take a break here.
