Here, on the state border between North Rhine-Westphalia and Hesse, which has been in force for several centuries, history can be 'understood', both physically by touching and feeling two historical boundary stones made of red sandstone, set in 1754, on whose usually 2 sides your stone number, initials of the 1754 reigning sovereigns and national coat of arms were carved out by stonemasons --- as well as by thinking about why the stones were set, which is why there is probably no straight line on the route of several boundary stones and there are still understandable reasons why a stone is exactly on this one position.

If you make a detour from stone no. 84 into the Mittelberg forest along the state border, you can visit other well-preserved stones. At least up to stone no. 88 where there are 3 stones of different ages and at that time the 'Sieler Klappe' (official border crossing) was located.
