This is how the "Laenschelder" are called because the farmers of the neighboring villages in the former Landeck office had to deliver hay and straw for the horses of the forest officials to Schenklengsfeld until 1828.

Straw rabbits, that's what the "Laenschelder" (Schenklengsfelder) are called, because the farmers of the surrounding villages in the former Landeck district had to deliver hay and straw for the horses of the forest officials to Schenklengsfeld until 1828.

The statue, erected in 2001, is reminiscent of the tongue-in-cheek name for the residents of Schenklengsfeld. There is a historical background to this. Until 1828, unfree farmers had to collect straw for the horses of the district administration from the surrounding towns of the Landeck district, in addition to paying tithes and manual and harnessing services.
