The mound is called Skarb, Skarbo mountain, Skarbokalni. Some say that the French covered the mound with hats, others say that the Swedes. People used to say that there used to be a fire burning on the mound before midnight, that there was an enchanted treasure hidden in it. Most likely, that is why the mound was called Skarbu. There is a well-known story about how the pastor of Žaslii tried to take the enchanted treasure. The priest had a dream that he would be able to take the treasure when he had a mass on the hill. He did so. At the end of the mass, the "skarba" had already begun to rise to the surface, all that was needed was to extinguish the candles. However, the priest had forgotten to take the tool with which candles are extinguished, so the sacristan blew them out. Then something rumbled, crashed and the jewels sank into the depths. The priest tried to celebrate the mass again, but the wealth was gone.
