From 1934 to 1936, the Reich Labor Service built a moderate access road (forest path) from Großbottwar to Neuwirtshaus (continuing to Lichtenberg Castle or the Hochstrasse). This memorial site was created approximately halfway along the route. A cast-iron plaque on the stone column commemorates the department that built the path.
Inscription on the cast-iron plaque:
Forest path construction
Hälden
RAD Department 6/260
"Friedrich Schiller"
1934-1936
(RAD stands for Reich Labor Service)
