    In 1908, the Association for the Elevation of Tourism in Gerlingen created a memorial stone with a marble relief of the poet near the former fruit tree school Johann Caspar Schillers, created by Gottfried Ludmann.
    In 1953, a bronze relief by Prof. von Graevenitz was placed on the back of the Schillerstein. This relief shows Friedrich Schiller at the first reading of his “Robbers” to friends in the Stuttgart Bopserwald, based on the well-known drawing by Schiller's classmate Victor Heideloff.

    This is where the poet Friedrich Schiller, whose mother spent her twilight years in Leonberg, is said to have read "The Robbers" to his fellow students. The scene is recorded accordingly on the stone.

    Memorial stone from 1908, near the former fruit tree nursery of the Gerlingen poet's father Johann Caspar Schiller, with a marble relief of the poet, created by Gottfried Ludmann. On the back, a bronze relief by Prof. von Graevenitz was added in 1953, based on the well-known drawing by Schiller's fellow student Victor Heideloff; this shows Friedrich Schiller at the first reading of his "The Robbers" to friends in the Stuttgarter Bopserwald.
