Hidden away on the road between the trees, one of the landmarks marking the new borderline between Saxony and Prussia after the Congress of Vienna in 1815. On one side "KS" for Kingdom of Saxony, on the other "KP" for Kingdom of Prussia.

Remains from 1815. Over 200 boundary markers set to mark the new border between the Kingdom of Saxony and the Kingdom of Prussia as a result of the shifting of the country's borders after the Congress of Vienna. More information: de.wikipedia.org/wiki/Liste_der_S%C3%A4chsisch-Preu%C3%9Fischen_Grenzsteine

Today they belong to the cultural monuments in Saxony.
In the region around the Heidebergturm, the stones are connected to each other by a themed boundary stone path: reiseland-brandenburg.de/poi/elbe-elster-land/wandertouren Grenzsteinwanderweg-zum-heidebergturm
