Hexenstein (Ritterstein 268)

The witch stone was set up by the Palatine Forest Association Wachenheim at Hexenplatz. On top of the hill was a burial mound, probably with a grave mensir.

The place was considered pagan, since there was an unknown grave. So one told oneself that there would be ghosts around and witches would do their mischief.🕀

The Hexenstein is at the top of Hexenplatz. The stone was set up by PWV Wachenheim and included in the Ritterstein network. He wears the number 268.
On the ridge was a tumulus on which stood a grave menhir, which has now been converted into a witch stone.

A landmark for hikers. The stone was set up by the Pfälzerwald Verein Wachenheim am Hexenplatz. On the ridge was a burial mound, a large burial mound, on which probably stood a "steep" a tomb coronation stone or grave menhir, which has now been converted into a witchstone.
Because there was an unknown grave there, the place was considered pagan, and it was mysteriously told that spirits deal there and witches do their nonsense. The belief in witchcraft was rooted for a very long time and deep in the folk soul. Their magic power is revealed by the witches in the night of May 1, the Walpurgis Night. So they ride on brooms and goats to the great witches 'Sabbath, which is held on the Witches' Square. There they also hold their solemn meetings with the devil and dance on the witch ball.
