Personalities

Say

The Rübezahl saga, The Unpolished Innkeeper, plays in Marschendorf . According to the legend, a Marschendorfer innkeeper helped himself to his guests' meals, including an omelette made from 20 eggs that Rübezahl ordered . After the host had mostly eaten the omelette himself, he suddenly began to cackle and choked out 20 eggs. The landlord never touched his guests' meals again.
