The large memorial stone lies on a hill that is visible from afar with three trees and a bench. The hill looks almost like a stone hill grave. The inscription in the memorial stone is unfortunately difficult to decipher. It says that Henry the Lion founded the "Lion City" here after the Lübeck fire in 1157, which however only existed for one year because the Wakenitz was not deep enough for the merchant ships.
A very nice place for a rest with beautiful views of the surrounding nature.
