    Devil's Club - a rock club made of ashlar sandstone, Cretaceous age, 8 meters high, called Devil's Club or Devil's Club, located in Gorzeszów.

    The inscription "1813 - 1913" is placed on the mace, commemorating the hundredth anniversary of Prussia's victory over Napoleon's troops in the Battle of the Nations.
    Legends related to the rock
    Legend has it that in the 12th century, when the Cistercians were building a monastery, it angered the devil who lived in the area so much that he decided to destroy it by throwing a boulder on it. He had to do it at night, before the first rooster crows, because at dawn he lost power. When he was flying with the boulder towards Krzeszów and was already above Gorzeszów, the roosters started crowing and the devil dropped the boulder, which landed near the Gorzeszów inn. Hence, people started calling it Devil's Club or Devil's Stone
