According to legend, the shallow cave in the rock (quartz-armed porphyry or rhyolite) was once much larger, and three fairies lived there. On a full moon night, a minstrel who had previously played at the fair in Hintergersdorf (spa town of Hartha) passed by. The three fairies had laid out laundry on the meadow to bleach. The musician picked up a lace cloth and took it with him. However, when he got home, instead of the cloth, he held a gray cobweb in his hand. Before sunrise, he returned the cobweb to its place, where it became a lace cloth again, just as the other laundry disappeared with the first rays of sunlight. Since then, the fairies have not been seen again, and the cave has become a shallow hole.

The Reiche Matthias Erbstollen is a former silver tunnel near Mohorn-Grund. Mining played an important role in the Tharandt Forest for a long time. According to records, the first mining in the Tharandt Forest began as early as 1330. Silver mining was carried out in particular near Mohorn-Grund and Edle Krone. The Reiche Matthias Erbstollen was a silver tunnel. In 2005, the mouth of the Erbstollen was rebuilt. From here, an approximately 400 m long tunnel was driven, which served to drain the many shafts. The mouth is easily accessible via the path turning left from the first Triebisch bridge in the village. "Saint Barbara", a man-sized oak figure, adorns and protects the entrance.
