In addition to the Dalum megalithic grave, there are some other remnants of very early settlements and beliefs in the Maiburg forest area. There are many legends and sagas surrounding the area that are still told in the area today. In addition to monoliths, which are said to have been a pagan place of worship, there are also the "Hexentreppe" and the "Teufelsstein". All evidence of a long past epoch. The names come from the designation of later centuries. Paganism was often equated with devil cults and the like and presented in a very negative sense. The Maiburg is likely to have been a central point of Neolithic life.

The witch's staircase was
according to legend, created by witches,
so that they go to their witches' dance floor
can get on the Qualenberg.
