Tõotusemägi. Once upon a time, a ship had lost its way at sea during a storm and did not know where to go. The men promised that if they made it to a beach, they would build a chapel there. Eventually, the sailors spotted a high mountain top and realised that there was land there. They eventually arrived safely ashore. Their ship was undamaged and the men were unharmed. Although the chapel was never built, the name Tõotusemägi remained.
