Around the year 1200, Emperor Friedrich II, known as Barbarossa, employed the nobles of Büdingen as forest administrators for a large imperial forest that stretched in the Gelnhausen - Büdingen - Wächtersbach area. The town of Gettenbach lies entirely in the Princely Büdingen-Ysenburger area. The small stele is supposed to refer to the noble emperor, who helped the house of Büdingen-Ysenburg to own a large amount of land and forests and thus also to fame, prestige and prosperity. Long live Emperor Barbarossa!!
