The Teufelsbrücke is located directly on the forest path.

With a trident and a flamethrower, the Deife sits and waits.

Franz Baier put the devil in the Bohemian Forest. The artist put a sculpture of the Sparifankerl on the Teufelsbrücke.

He sits there on a large boulder, marked by life. A flamethrower in one hand and a trident in the other. He has already lost one eye in a fight. Is that what the prince of Hell looks like? "No. Of course not. Des is a very friendly fellow, ”says Franz Baier. And he has to know, because the violinist created the Belzebub out of iron and other metal. Now the devil is sitting up by the devil's bridge and keeping watch.

Today at the Kohlenmeierplatz (coal kiln square), we learned a great deal about the history of charcoal burning. Master charcoal burner Manfred showed us many pictures, and last but not least, we were allowed to sign the guest book. It was wonderful. Please come to the charcoal kiln in the next few days and experience a little piece of the dark history of the Bavarian Forest.
