At this spot on the highway north of Tjoerring, the inspiration of Aakjær's famous poem came across. In his account book he wrote on may 19th 1901: 'The stonebeater, Tjoerring, 25 oere'. Many years later Aakjær remembered and added: This man on the highway by Tjoerring gave me the first idea for the poem 'Jens Vejmand'.
