Culture by the sculptor Johann Planer.
"A Throw of Destiny"

Bullets

and a witty one

Boy challenged her to a cheeky competition.

He claimed to be able to throw his hat farther than the giants throw theirs.

Little boy and giant beaked man in a throwing position with their hats as So the beaked men had to be tricked into opening the valley,

So long he teased them with his boasts that the giants in competition like their hats

projectiles

threw towards the mountains. However, some of the huge headgear also decapitated

her sharp

Rims of various mountain peaks that had previously sealed off the valley all around. They realized too late

Beak people the consequences of their challenged act. Today still remembered among others the so

resulting Staller saddle to the former liberation list of the Defregger boys.
