EARL ISANG is a mythical figure. One can still meet people among the locals who can tell legends.
It is said that one can see in the middle of the Seeburger Lake the spire of Earl Isang's castle with a lot of patients and only when the water level is favourable.
According to the eerily-beautiful legend this castle sank in ocean of tears, which were wept by Isang out of remorse about his far-reaching wicked life before he secluded himself in a monastery.
A version of this myth is also played in the theatre.

In September 2004 a restaurant / café with beer garden has opened at the Seeburger Lake. The legendary figure gave this leisure jewel its name.
