In memory of the young man, people hollowed out a coffin from granite and put it right on the road. According to another legend, in a coffin are buried lovers who fled from the evil master. And one more prosaic version: in the middle of the last century, a road was made in this place and a bizarre stone was found. They didn’t take it away, they just threw it away.
