Description

When many centuries ago St. Mary's was built, the Devil noticed the construction site. Being curious, he asked the architect what kind of building was in progress, and the architect - who liked the idea of misleading the Devil - answered: ?A big inn!? That pleased the Lord of darkness, because plenty of sinning was done in inns. So he helped the building with his devilish powers. After some time, he got suspicious when the walls were growing higher and higher. He talked to a little boy who told him the truth. The Devil became furious and threw the block of stone he carried in the direction of the church, and then vanished.

That's only a legend, of course...or is it? The block of stone still lies in St. Mary's churchyard, and no historian can explain what it might be doing there. Instead, the Devil in bronze is sitting on the stone now, and it seems as if he is smiling and thinking of his mistake...
