    This granite block was erected during the Waxenberg Knight's Tournament. It contains a sword whose hilt and crossguard are visible, allowing everyone to test their strength.

    Text on the plaque: According to legend, Merlin forged a magnificent sword and, using his magical powers, drove the blade into a massive stone.
    The sword's name was Excalibur, and on the hilt was inscribed in golden letters: "Whoever can draw this sword from the stone is the rightful king of Britain." Draw the sword from the stone like King Arthur!
