The statue origins in 1665; it was put there because a farmer's women prayed to the larch tree and when she told the story to a hermit called Johann Weiss, he created the clay statue.
Kuju pärineb aastast 1665; see pandi siia, kuna taluniku naine palvetas lehise puu poole, ja kui naine rääkis loo erak Johann Weissile, tegi see savikuju.
