    description
    German: Ernst-August-Rex-Stein on the Telegraphenberg in the district of Breetze the city Bleckede - view from the north.
    Almost man-sized granite obelisk, which documents the ownership of the heath land sold by the Breetz peasants to the royal domain treasury by Ernst August I (King of Hanover, Duke of Brunswick-Lüneburg from 1837-1851) in 1847. With the sale, the farmers were able to raise the necessary funds to extinguish the obligations that had arisen in their farms since the time of their annexation in 1838. Against the background of the afforestation of the area beginning after the occupation, the wolf symbol is to be seen as a symbol of power in the forest context.

      A nice historical point. The short steep climb to the Telegraphenber is definitely worth it. The story can be found here. de.wikipedia.org/wiki/Breetze
