One of the 'Marterl' (small religious monuments) along the Amper tells the moving story of Anton Fütterer, a young woodcutter from the late 19th century. Anton worked hard to support his family and was often involved in the dangerous task of driving logs down the Amper river. On a summer day in 1891, as Anton was once again guiding logs through the narrow gorge of the Amper, a tragic accident occurred. While trying to free a jammed log, he lost his balance and fell into the water. His companions only found him in the evening, floating dead in the water. The news of Anton's death shook the entire village. The local newspaper launched a donation appeal for his widow and the three young children he left behind. A 'Marterl' was erected at the spot where Anton had his accident, to commemorate his tragic fate and to offer passers-by a place for reflection.

The trunks each have a diameter of approx. 1.5 meters. ...” On July 11, 2023, the eastern oak tree was damaged by Storm Ronson.
