Tips
In 1734 the Elector Friedrich August II issued an order to the Chamberlain and Chief Forester Heinrich von Bünau and the Radeberg bailiff Johann Balthasar Langbein about the establishment of boundary signs along the entire forest border of the Laußnitzer Heide. When it was set up, the laughing cross pointed outwards from the electoral area, the swords pointed inwards. Few of these landmarks, like this one, still exist today.

Only a few of these boundary stones still exist, which were erected in 1734.
