"[...] this stone was set up in 1992 [by the PWV] to commemorate the Iggelbach ancestors, who carried the hay wrapped in cloths on their heads from the Geiswiese and the neighboring valley meadows up to the top and only up to the Transfer wagons.” Source (quoted verbatim):

This PWV memorial stone is NOT a knight's stone (since it is not included in the list of PWV knight's stones). Diagonally opposite is a rotten rest area.

It doesn't seem to be a memorial stone, but rather a forgotten knight's stone, the PWV abbreviation is on the "Ritterstein".
