Unfortunately, I could not find a story about it. However, it is not unlikely that it could be related to Friedenfels and the Notthaft family. Supposedly, the enemy brothers Christoph and Friedrich Sittich Notthafft decided here with a handshake the peace on the rock. It was an inheritance dispute

The name Friedenfels is linked to the dispute between the brothers Christoph and Friedrich Sittich Notthracht, who made peace on a large rock in the stone forest after the estate was divided. The first mention of Friedenfels dates back to 1553.
