Formerly a boundary stone of the Haingeraiden forests, but without boundary marks on the stone, these were on a tree next to it. The stone also served as a meeting point for the Haingeraiden foresters, who were sworn in to protect the forest at this location.

The knight's stone called Schwörstein is a huge border and bearing stone. It is said that witches meet here on May night and dance around the stone. I wasn't up here that night.
