    The PWV-Ritterstein has the number 26 and is located on the road from Silz to Vorderweidenthal. Unfortunately, the oak mentioned above no longer exists. The knight's stone is cared for and maintained by the PWV.

    This square sandstone column "is said to be an old wayside column" next to which an oak tree used to stand. "But it could also be an old boundary stone."

    The knight's stone stands next to a (somewhat dilapidated) bench-table combination, which is quite hidden at the road junction of the K 10 to Lindelbrunn (= junction of the L 493 Klingenmünster - Dahn) and offers a beautiful view of the meadow all the way to the sports grounds of the "Sportverein Blau-Weiß Vorderweidenthal".

    An old wayside shrine is said to be located at the "Bildeiche" (Picture Oak). "An oak tree used to stand there" (Eitelmann 2005, p. 34). The Ritterstein (Knight's Stone) does indeed resemble a wayside shrine. However, it could also be an old boundary stone. Similarly shaped Rittersteine are No. 3 and No. 25.
