"Girl's Grave"
The farmer's maid Catharina Elisabeth Bauer from Kleinbottwar was expecting a child from her farmer, a widower. One day she went through the forest to Backnang to buy things for the child. On her return, she was murdered by the farmer, the child's father, at this spot, despite vehement pleas and begging, on September 4, 1836. The farmer wanted to wipe away this shame. He then buried the girl's body in the thicket of the forest near the oak tree that still stands today.
The farmer was suspected of the crime and imprisoned, but he stubbornly denied it. He was then sent to prison in Gotteszell for 18 years. There, the girl appeared to him at night as a ghost. With the child in her arms, she urged him to confess until he finally admitted the crime.
After 10 years in prison in Gotteszell, the farmer died.
The murderer and the victim had the same name"
