Tips

Andrea und Huskys 🐺

Hiking

On the Thuringian side, decorated with a prince's hat and in a baroque frame, you can see the coat of arms of the Duchy of Saxony: the shield with a curved diamond wreath and several divisions. Below it is the inscription: "V G G J E H Z S J C V B". The full text is: "By the grace of God, Johann Ernst, Duke of Saxony, Jülich, Cleve and Berg". The Duchy of Saxony-Meiningen and its district of Saalfeld, successor to the Electorate of Saxony, once lay on this side. 1727 is the year the stone was laid.

Several boundary stones can be found here on the Schönwappenweg. If you have the technical aids with you, there are also audio files to listen to!
