Long ago, two poor boys from Bischberg went begging out of necessity. In the evening, they wanted to divide the money they had earned fairly. Over a single penny left over, they argued so fiercely that they beat each other and both died. As a memorial and warning of this event, a wayside shrine was erected on this spot, which was replaced around 1900 by the current one.
