The Zigeunerstock is located a little way off in the forest, next to the B 303. The tragic story/legend invites you to pause for a moment.

Mountain biking

Gypsies are said to have stored here often, because they did not find a home within the localities and would like to stay near trade routes. The traveling people made their money, among other things with the Siebmachhandwerk and the Scherenschleiferei. But also by begging. Two of the Gypsies quarreled while sharing the loot. They probably killed each other. Her sincere clan left the place without burying the dead. Only a few days later, wagoners buried the two slain and erected the "Gypsy's stick" above the grave.
