    The jump on the Kiekenstein
    According to the Poller Chronicle
    At the time of Napoleon, a boy from Altendorf, Knocke, did not want to become a soldier.
    He hid with Polle. Betrayed and tied to a horse's tail
    we went to the French military court in Kassel. Knocke jumped in despair
    here the red rock down. He only suffered abrasions. The gut was injured under the
    dead horse Knocke disappeared in the Kiekenstein. Later he fought at Wateroo against Napoleon
    1995

    This is a great story and the stone is impossible to miss.
