A mighty treasure lies buried in the Gisselhøj mound. Once upon a time, the men of Jordløse decided that they would raise the treasure but they were not allowed to say a single word. For if they did, the treasure would sink back into the ground, never to be brought up again.
One day they were at the mound and had managed to raise the treasure half way to the surface. As they did so, one of the men looked in the direction of Jordløse and saw that the town was engulfed in flames. Terrified, the man shouted as loud as he could to the others that the town was on fire.
They let the treasure drop back down and ran to town but there was not a single flame to be seen when they got there. It was then that they understood that they had been tricked by the trolls who lived underground. No attempt was ever made again to try and raise the treasure.
