      This imposing monument of older traffic history was built in 1734 at the place where posthorses have been changed since 1669 - at the Posthalterei.

        On Crostigall is the post gate to the former post office with the royal Polish / Electoral Saxon double coat of arms from 1734. It is a remarkable testimony to Saxon transport history and served as an exit for the “Electoral Saxon Post Office” established in 1696. Many buildings on the site date from this period, such as the manor house, the servants' quarters and the coach house
