    Hiking

    These boundary stones mark a former border from another era.

    Hiking

    The boundary stones are on Wiesener Straße, an old mountain path that was used by carts and carts in the old days. The Wiesener Strasse has always been the border - between the Electoral Mainz Forest and the Frammersbach Community Forest, the Electoral Mainz Area and the Electoral Hessian Area and later between the Kingdoms of Bavaria and Prussia.

    Hiking

    In addition to the boundary stones with the markings K P for Kingdom of Prussia and K B for Kingdom of Bavaria, which are visible in many places, stones from the previous territories can also be found here, even if the old coats of arms are already heavily eroded. In the 19th century, under the coat of arms of the County of Hanau, only the Prussian K P was added and under the coat of arms of the Electorate of Mainz the K B. Also a type of continued use when times change.
