" THE LEGEND OF THE GOLDEN CARP ":

A long time ago, the son of the Count of Ferrette enjoyed walking along the Liebsdorf village.
One day, he met a young sheperdess whose beauty dazzled him. He fell fully in love of the beautiful girl but was too shy to express his feelings. He thus decided to engrave a poem of love on the stone where she used to rest.

Charmed by the message, she accepted the wedding proposal from the knight. However, the Count of Ferrette was against this wedding. Believing it would be impossible, the Count, asked the young sheperdess to accomplish a feat that would make her worthy of this wedding.

Selfconfident, the young girl offered him to taste the mysterious Golden Fish. Curious, he accepted. She then went fishing a few carps that she cooked her own way in the oil. The Count of Ferrette was so delighted by the delicious carps that he accepted the wedding between his son and the shepherdess. He also built for them a castle on the stone where the love poem had been engraved. Today, this place is known under the name of Liebenstein, which means the love stone. Since then, the carp and chips is a very famous meal in the Sundgau.
