    Devil's Kitchen is eib old megalithic tomb. According to legend, this was a pagan sacrificial site right here. Men followed their preacher in ancient songs through the forest to listen to his wise words. The sacrificial animal is carried along with ritual songs and tied to the stone intended for it. In honor of Wodan or another pagan god, the beast was sacrificed and the priest prophesied the future. Gradually, however, Christianity gained the upper hand as a religion and the ancient sites were referred to as dwelling places of evil, the devil. So this megalithic tomb got the name Teufelsküche.
