Correct name: KORNMANDL. The "stone Kornmandl" could have served as a calendar stone in the past. There is also a legend about it: A farmer became angry about the poor grain harvest and cursed so blasphemously during the harvest that God sent him just punishment. He turned the Kornmandl into stone.

The Herzsteinweg leads past it in this beautiful area. In the immediate vicinity, it is worth making a detour to the Totenkopf rock and the Mitterberg cross.
