According to legend, Helene was a devout Scanian girl who was attacked and killed by robbers. When they had thrown her body in the water at the Swedish coast, rose a big boulder up from the ocean depths and carried Helene's body over the ocean, where it drifted ashore at Tisvildeleje. When local farmers and fishermen would carry the corpse from the cliff to Tibirke Church to give it a Christian burial, there was a miracle and a gorge opened up at the cliff at their feet. Fascinated by the sight they set the stretcher down and immediately jumped up a source on site. On the road towards the church began some of the men who carried her however, to keep indecent speech, and then sank the stretcher with Helene into the ground, and she got her final resting place only a few hundred meters from the shore. |
