Description

* The legend of the miller fox of the barley soil * The legend has it that not so long ago a fox caused trouble around the Lenzing area.

It was the soul of a godless miller who, as a fox, found no peace.

"If I am to become something after death, I would most of all like to be a fox!", the miller blasphemed in the traditional saga. And that's the way it should be.

After the sudden death of the miller night after night a fox was up to mischief between Wiesersberg and Lenzing.

He terrified the people with his howl until it finally rang 4 o'clock and the nightly haunting came to an end.

After a few weeks of restlessness and fear, the hunters wanted to ambush the fox, but he was able to flee. Only when the miller's wife made a pilgrimage to Maria Kirchental, his soul was freed and the fox disappeared. equipment sturdy shoes, sun protection
