In 1795 there was a battlefield below the Schänzel Tower. Two large memorial stones commemorate this. On the further way there are several carved stones that refer to the battle.

The Schänzelturm is an 1874 built and 13 m high observation tower on the Steigerkopf near Edenkoben in the Rhineland-Palatinate district of the Southern Wine Route and at the same time the highest tower of the low mountain range Pfälzerwald.
