"A Saxon Post Miles Column, colloquially known as a Saxon Post Miles Column or just a post column, is a milestone that indicates distances and walking times down to an eighth of an hour. The design of the stones varies depending on the distance." - de.wikipedia.org/wiki/course%C3%A4chsische_Postmeilens%C3%A4ule#quartermilestone
Quarter milestones always alternated with half and whole mile columns. But this one certainly had a different location.

The original quarter-milestone No. 9 from 1723 (primitive form) was originally located on Glashütter Straße, near the Reinholdshainer Teiche on the so-called Obergebirgische Poststraße and today stands on the corner of Altenberger Straße / Pfortenberg, at the bus station, not far from Obertorplatz.
