    The Legend of the Millstone:

    When the devil once saw that a church was to be built in Wolfterode, he got angry and threw a huge piece of rock down from the Hoher Meißner to destroy the people and their work. The stone flew far beyond the target and fell on a meadow, where the mill pond soon formed. A second stone also missed the church and landed like a frog on a meadow near the mill, which is why it was given the name millstone. Because the stone still shows the devil's thumbprint like a cave, it is also called the "devil's stone".

      The information board is located directly in front of the short circular path to the millstone and describes the legend of the millstone. In front of it, a bench with a table invites you to take a comfortable rest.

        Quiet area that invites you to take a break. Benches with tables are available.
