Information about "Gruhen" in the Ludwigsburg district, Baden-Württemberg
- There are over 50 Gruhen
- Swabian "gruoeben" = to rest
- These stone benches were once used by porters to rest (16th to 19th centuries)
- At that time, heavy loads were transported across the countryside with back packs or baskets on the heads of farmhands, peddlers, etc.
- The raised structure allowed porters to pick up their goods independently after a rest
These "benches" can be found occasionally in southern Germany
