The lady of the Bourglinster Castle, known as Ziedewitz, whose husband was commandant of the fortress of Luxembourg, ruled the palace by her whim alone. In front of the palace, under a linden tree, there stood a post with an iron collar. If the lady lost anything, or if there was any crime committed in the forest or fields, the guilty party, depending on the mood of the mistress, was made to stand the whole day at the post with the ring around his neck. One saga adds that the noblewoman died Luxembourg and was brought to Junglinster for burial. As they went, however, the body became so heavy that the four black horses pulling the hearse grew white with sweat and at last could go no farther. It took many men to carry the body from the “Itziger Steil” to Junglinster. After the death the lady of the castle, her servants in the palace often thought they heard the swish of silk in the broad palace halls. Another saga tells of an old bridge near the “Hertcheswald” forest near Weiher (parish of Fischbach) which is said to have been built by the Romans. A shepherd coming home one evening from the “Hertcheswald” across the bridge, he heard behind him someone calling “O, mam! O, mam!” He thought it might be a child who had gotten lost, and he called out that it should come up to him on the bridge. He heard the cries a few more times but as he saw nothing, he continued on his way. The next day, he told the miller who lived by the forest of his experience. The miller told him he had heard the same cry before. It was not a child, but a fox, and this fox was a boy that the witch Ziedewitz from the castle (of Bourglinster) had turned into a fox because of a prank. He comes once a month in the evening from seven to eight, crying “O, mam! O, mam!” Teacher Brandenburg of Burglinster
