The tale of Goat Stone opens a window into ancient legends that add color and mystery to the history of our region. Long ago, in this remote area, where today nature's tranquility reigns, there stood a grand manor living through its daily routines and challenges. In one such daily episode, the manor's shepherd, devoted to his duties, faced the cruelty of nature – a pack of wolves attacked his grazing animals. In a determined attempt to defend the sheep and goats, he, worried for their safety, led them back to a secure place. However, the next day, when he returned to the same spot, the shepherd discovered a miracle – a white goat standing safely and soundly on a stone, having escaped the jaws of the wolves, while the fates of others were much grimmer.
