    Author’s recommendation

    In St. Roman, the farmers once built a chapel. The devil did not like that at all. He hurried to the highest mountain peak, broke off a piece of rock, and wanted to smash the little church with it. The patron saint of the house of God deflected the stone, which crashed onto a meadow. To this day, the marks of the devil's claws can still be seen on the stone.
