Legendary rock on the Pfaffenstein

According to tradition, it is said that the Barbarine was once a young woman who wanted to pick berries instead of going to church. When her mother realised this, she cursed her daughter and turned her into a stone. The unfortunate girl has stood there ever since and remains in this form to this day.
