"The Royal Saxon Triangulation (here with the historical proper name) is a state survey carried out in the years 1862 to 1890 on the territory of the Kingdom of Saxony with the simultaneous creation of a trigonometric network.
The aim was to record the national territory scientifically and geodetically and to create the basis for the production of precise maps by establishing permanently marked reference points." - de.wikipedia.org/wiki/K%C3%B6niglich-S %C3%axial_triangulation

Technically not easy to reach, but a nice, secluded niche in the forest with the distinctive survey column. I recommend the descent back to the Kammweg in a westerly direction.
There is no longer a line of sight from the point such as was previously needed to do the geodetic work. These were from N.T.R.: The stations Schöneck, Kiel, Aschberg, Landwust, Bärenloh and Bergen.

In the middle of the forest, not easy to find. There is an information board with more detailed explanations of triangulation
