Legend has it that the devil himself beat a labyrinth into the rock, to make it look like a road, to lead sinners and their souls astray. Many of his poor victims carved their names into the soft rock faces in desperation, letting those they had left behind and friends know about their fate. It is said that attentive hikers can still sense these lost souls in Teufelsgasse and on occasion their lamentations and cries can still be heard.
