Kurt Knüppel belonged to one of Kahla's glider flying groups.
Above Zwabitz there was an ideal take-off point and a short runway.
In August 1937 Kurt Knüppel got into trouble with the plane "Leuchtenburg"
went into a tailspin and crashed. He died a short time later in a Jena clinic.
The stone was first in the Kahla cemetery and was later placed near the crash site.
