    In the four-valley area and probably beyond, the mocking name of the inhabitants of Steeg is known.
     Earlier even more than today they were called the "Steeger donkey". This designation has nothing to do with the "stupid donkey", but comes from a previously practiced in Steeg way of working, which contributed to the work easier.


    Since the vineyards were hardly accessed by roads until the 20th century, all loads (fertilizer, ground, grapes) had to be transported on the back on the vineyard paths.
