    The monument is a reminder of the hard work of the stone carvers and the long tradition of stonemasonry in the region.

      In the vicinity of the "Hohe Reuth" quarry, on the hiking trail, there is the "Steinhauerdenkmal" created by Johann Heinrich Gareis to commemorate the old stone carvers and their hard work.

      The inscription reads: "IN MEMORY OF THE OLD STONE CUTTERS OF GEFREES 1885."
