At the site of the former Fürstenwalde Castle, the White Lady of Vrbno wanders. She once caused the castle's destruction and, as punishment, must roam here forever with a burning torch and the key to a secret passage. The white apparition is also seen running in the meadow below the ruins. She also appears as a burning bundle of hay flying through the nearby forest.
