“Les Fonds de Quarreux” or the rage of the devil

In the Amblève nature reserve (Belgium) lies an almost magical place, the “Fonds de Quarreux”. During a walk along the river you can discover these mysterious rounded boulders. Legend has it that these quartzite stones are the remains of a mill that the devil is said to have built for a miller who sold his soul to him. But the miller’s wife prevented the mill from working. Thereupon the devil burst into rage, destroyed the mill and killed the woman.
