Here, in 1635, Peter Butz was shot by the Swedes during the Thirty Years' War, who then plundered the surrounding villages. Peter Butz was a treasurer in Drolshagen and wanted to negotiate with the army. It is said that he ignored a triple call and was then shot.
The stone set in 1660 is very well preserved, the inscription is still clearly legible.
Regardless of this, there is also a nice little rest area with breathtaking views into the Siebengebirge.

You can relax on three benches. One of them also has a table.
