    Stunning resemblance to the cyclist rock in the upper Kleinziegenfelder valley.

      A Bavarian soldier with a cannon sits high up on the rock! This probably goes back to the Swedish War, where the village was spared. The farmers had placed a plow on the rock, which the Swedish scouts saw as a danger. The Swedish soldiers then avoided the village.
