The grandfather's chair is a little off the path, surrounded by the forest. It is a stone that is reminiscent of an armchair or chair and the year 1908 (or 1998 🤔) is carved on the backrest. On the back of the backrest it bears the inscription "Quiet Gentle".

The grandfather's chair dates back to times gone by
of the local quarries around Ringenhain.
This stone can be found at the edge of the forest,
near the hiking trail to Helenenblick.
