East above Dýšina, in Kohotský Wood, stands a large boulder at a place long called Na ostrém kameni, At the Sharp Stone (474 m). The devil supposedly dropped it while carrying it to the boundary of the Rokycany district. The last stroke of midnight caught him here. A stolen treasure is also said to be hidden beneath it: two golden angels concealed by thieves after a robbery in Prague. Little flames sometimes leap above it at night. A White Lady appears to late travellers here, supposedly turning to watch every passer-by closely.
