The bridge stone found at the outlet of the Oberfürstenteich in 2005 came to light when the bridge was renovated. It is 170 cm long, 80 cm wide, weighs around 760 kg and consists of porphyry tuff rock from the Rochlitzer Berg. (LVZ, Tuesday, October 25, 2005, p. 5)
The boulder comes from southern Sweden and came to Geithain with the Elster glaciation 500,000 years ago. mass 14 t. (Info: Bernd Richter)
