Katharina Stone
St. Kathrein am Hauenstein
The Katharina Stone is a legendary place in honor of the parish patroness Catherine in St. Kathrein am Hauenstein.
According to a legend, the footprint of St. Catherine, the patron saint of St. Kathrein am Hauenstein, is said to be imprinted in this stone. She is said to have left her place at the high altar in 1529 and, standing on two stones here on the mountainside with a sword in hand and a radiant halo around her head, confronted the Turks. Following this, the Turks withdrew, and the stone filled with healing water.
This water, which lies in the depression year-round, is said to have healing powers that help against warts, trembling, and itchy skin.
