In Krofdorfer forest (municipality Wettenberg), only a few hundred meters northwest of the forest house you will find the "Dreiherrenstein". It was set in 1669 on the border between the Landgravates of Hessen-Darmstadt and Hesse-Cassel. In the south, the Principality of Nassau-Weilburg was added. He got the name from the three men HD, HC and NW. In later years, additional landmarks were added as a result of territorial development. In 1806, the county Hesse-Darmstadt became the Grand Duchy of Hesse. Through the Peace of 1815 and the decisions of the Congress of Vienna, the Principality of Nassau-Weilburg went to the Kingdom of Prussia. The most recently established landmark No 241, KP GBF = Gleiberger Forst, GH KRB = Krumbach is still the legal limit today.

Another historic site that has stood the test of time.
The Dreiherrenstein is located on a beautiful border path.
