The Legend the legend, in which the devil built the castle here, high in the sky, in defiance of God, based on this observation of the rocks, which had already been made in the past by people with a natural acumen. (...) This time, as always, it did not work out well for the devil: his half-finished castle was shattered by one blow of the hand of God, and the rock really gives the impression of a Cyclopean castle ruin.

It is assumed that the first chapel was built on the Michelsberg as early as the beginning of the 14th century. A missal dated 1456 was written for the "Michaelskapelle auf dem Mahlberg", although this place name refers to the earlier name of the Michelsberg. Of the chapel, which was finally built around 1500, only the late Gothic choir with its net vault remains today. The transverse rectangular nave with a three-storey west tower in front of it was built in the late 17th century and renovated between 1857 and 1860 after large parts of it had burned down in a lightning strike in 1836. The tower roof was added in 1869. As part of its renovation in 1934 and 1935, an observation platform was also created in the tower. The chapel was systematically repaired between 1953 and 1961. The roofs were re-covered, the exterior and interior plastering was renewed and the stucco ceiling of the nave was repaired. The open staircase on the south side, which leads to the portal of the church, was also rebuilt as part of the renovation. Source: Wikipedia

For the quartzite blocks see e.g. B. https://de.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Teufelsley_(Rhineland-Palatinate) The largest quartzite block in Europe is 80 meters long and 18 meters high. Quartzite sandstone, the oldest Eifel rock, was formed around 400 million years ago. At that time the region was on the equator, and a Devon Sea covered the land. And its deposits formed rock formations like this over the course of the tides. Quartzite itself is barren, but soil collects in its cracks, greening the stone. The red inclusions come from iron components. The word Ley means rock. According to legend, the devil once wanted to build a castle here all the way to heaven - but a single push from God was enough to thwart his blasphemous plan.

Among other things, Gottfried Kinkel comments on Teufelsley: “This extremely fantastic rock rises on a narrow mountain ridge, so that it looks as if the mass had been shattered by a terrible shock from the east. There is no doubt that the legend of the castle, which the devil erected sky high in defiance of God, is based on this observation made earlier by the people with their usual natural acumen. (…) This time, as always, it turned out badly for the devil: His half-finished castle was shattered with a single blow of God's hand, and the rock really gives the impression of a Cyclopean castle ruin. ”However, there is no historical news of a possible castle on Teufelsley or even construction remains.

“Each of these crosses can tell its own story and what motivated people to erect“ their ”cross at this point. (...) These crossroads were erected as visible signs and attract the eyes of many people. The cross is a symbol of life. It stands as a sign of our Christian hope and wants to direct our gaze to Jesus Christ, who overcame death (...). The cross is part of our life, just as it was part of the life of Jesus. So I hope that many people ... visit the crossroads, whether as places of silence and breathing before God, whether as places of congregation meeting, prayer and praise of God. " (Dean Rainald M. Ollig in "Wegekreuze")
