Whatever has been here, the little sandstone does not look like a Saxon sacrificial stone. The nationalist interpretations of the 19th century have made quite a difference with the sights in East Westphalia. But as a stop on a hike, where there is so much to discover, the stone is always good. And he likes to make kids want more if the adults tell the stories well ...

An old Saxon sacrificial site was allegedly located here. There Charlemagne had a cross erected in the course of their forced Christianization. The Saxons contemptuously called this the "Little God" when they ran past it to the "Lazy Hunter" to sacrifice there according to their old beliefs. The stones that can still be seen today are said to be remnants of this cross.
