    A Saxon post mile column, colloquially known as a Saxon post mile column or just a post column, is a milestone that indicates distances and walking times down to an eighth of an hour. The design of the stones varies according to the distance they represent, they can be in the form of an obelisk, an ancient herm or a stele. The model was Roman miles columns, from which the inaccurate designation as a column was derived. The Saxon chief postal director Paul Vermehren arranged for it to be set up after official distance determinations, the results of which are recorded in hours on the post mileage columns made of hewn natural stone.

        Doesn't mean Liebstadt Castle but Kuckuckstein Castle (already available as a highlight).
