This is the giantess Hildegonda; in her apron she carried sand. On the
site of Hillegersberg her apron tore, and sand out of it formed the mountain,
on which the present settlement of Hillegersberg was built around the Hillegonda
church. There was a castle here, Slot Hillegersberg, demolished by Jacoba
van Beieren in 1426, of which a few remains still exist.
