The old and new Dresden-Teplitzer Poststraße belong to the Erzgebirge passes and formed part of the old route system known as the Kulmer Steig, which led from the Dresden Elbe valley via the Eastern Ore Mountains to Bohemia. Today, the Old Dresden-Teplitzer Poststrasse in its Saxon section is considered the most complete historical traffic connection occupied by post mileage columns.

"A Saxon Post Miles Column, colloquially known as a Saxon Post Miles Column or just a post column, is a milestone that indicates distances and walking times down to an eighth of an hour. The design of the stones varies depending on the distance." - de.wikipedia.org/wiki/course%C3%A4chsische_Postmeilens%C3%A4ule#quartermilestone
In this case it is a quarter milestone on the Alte Dresden-Teplitzer Poststraße.
