    There are many little stone men on the Dreienberg, they are an archaic form of signposts, but are still being erected worldwide today. The marking is intended to facilitate orientation, particularly in difficult and confusing terrain - such as mountains, high mountains, steppes and deserts. Stone cairns are common in all populated areas of the world. In various cultures, they are associated with other, often religious, customs. These markings can be distinguished from sometimes similar looking burial mounds and Cairns; In some languages (such as English or French), stone men are also called Cairn.

      Unfortunately, many stone towers have been vandalized recently :-(
      However, there are still a few stone towers on the side of the path and offer those passing by the opportunity to expand them or build a tower with new stones.
