Legend:
Everyone knows that trolls are not fond
of churches, so when Egebjerg Church was
built, the trolls from Egebjerg,
Hundested, Nakke in Hornsherred and
Sweden on their mounts, angry and
powerless, while the church got bigger
and bigger every day . Eventually the
tower was raised. The bells were hung up
and sent their powerful sound over land
and sea. The trolls fled to their homes.
They held their ears, sick of bells
chimes. From time to time they threw a
stone at the church tower, to stop the
terrible sound, but they always hit
next. Eventually they gave up to do
something about it.
The Hornsherred Troll was the greatest and
wisest of the goblins, who was disturbed
by Egebjerg church bells. He liked to
collect stones and have them in his
pocket. One day he found a particularly
large, beautiful stone. It was the
largest he had ever had encountered, and
it dented exceedingly out of his jacket
pocket.
He was almost returning home with his
findings as the hated the bells began to
ring. He took a firm grip on the stone,
so solid that his fingerprints were
seated in the - took aim at the tower
and threw ... He followed the heavy
artillery with eyes. It shot a good
speed, and direction fitted! - But he
had aimed too low. The stone could not
get over Stokkebjerg Forest.
Disappointed as the magician how the
stone struck against a tree. The tree
toppled and tore many other trees down
with it. The stone crashed in Isefjorden.
Troll threw himself to the ground and
wept with rage. However, there was
nothing that could help?
