    Staufer steles are octagonal memorial stones that commemorate the Staufers, who were Roman-German kings and emperors in the High Middle Ages. The sculptor of these monuments is Markus Wolf from Stuttgart-Plieningen.

    The first Staufer stele was inaugurated on December 13, 2000, the 750th anniversary of the death of the last Staufer Emperor Friedrich II, in the ruins of Castel Fiorentino in Italy. This was followed by steles in Germany, France, Austria, the Czech Republic and the Netherlands. Between 2002 and 2018 the inscriptions on the steles were designed by the Staufer Friends Committee.

    The location of the Staufer stele is not shown correctly. It is at the top of the plateau and not on the descent.
