By the church in the cemetery lies the old grave of Vogt Trotte. According to tradition, Vogt Trotte was feared as a harsh Vogt. Several heavy stones lie on his grave – according to legend, so that he cannot rise again. A macabre allusion to the stones with which he is said to have once held condemned people to the gallows rock.
