Frau Hitt, stone-offering version

Overview

Kräutler’s second version tells of Frau Hitt offering a stone as bread to a hungry child and mocking a poor woman. A storm then petrifies the giantess and her horse.

This selected version remains separate from the article’s bread-cleaning and rebellious-son versions. It is a narrated landscape legend, not a verified punishment or reconstructed historical queen.
