At Georgenstein, the Via Julia, which is important for the salt trade, the Roman road from today's Günzburg via Augsburg to Salzburg, crossed the Isar. It is not known with certainty whether the Isar was crossed on the trunk road by a ford, a ferry or a wooden bridge. The path along the river is still called "Roman Road". In 1805 the raftsman Georg Müller capsized on the boulder. In his need he called his namesake for help. After he was saved, he had the saint placed on the rock. Since that time the stone has been called Georgenstein.

There it lies now, probably once a mountain peak.

You learn that from The Mouse or Tobi Checker. How mountains become sand one day.
