According to a legend, the two imprints in the stone come from the foot of a giant maiden and the horse's foot of the devil, both of which are said to have jumped here from the Wendelstein in ancient times.

The Gründelsloch near Kindelbrück is one of the most impressive and important karst springs in Thuringia. It was created by the dissolution of limestone in the subsoil. The resulting underground cavity collapsed in 1611, causing a sinkhole and the spring to emerge. The active karst spring, with a diameter of 22 m and a discharge of around 15,600 l per minute, has several older precursor springs that are lined up like a string of pearls from northwest to southeast in the area of the Kindelbrück fault zone and dried up again over time. Examples of these dried-up precursor springs are the Kuhborn, around 700 meters away, or the karst spring on the Steinrinne. Source: display board

The Bilzingsleben site is an exceptional archaeological and paleoanthropological site in northern Thuringia. The finds were dated to be 400,000 years old and attributed to Homo erectus. They are among the earliest traces of the Homo genus in Central Europe. The site is located about 1.5 km south of the town of Bilzingsleben on the edge of the Wipper valley. The surface of the former "Steinrinne" quarry is about 35 m above the current floodplain and at 175 m above sea level. The small spur-like elevation is framed by the Wipper in the east and the Wirbelbach in the south. Source: Wikipedia
