[...] After a new measurement in 1858, a new one was made between 1859 and 1865 System of milestones - the royal Saxon milestones in the form of station, whole mile, half mile, branch and border crossing stones - created (from 1840: 1 mile = 7.5 km)." - de.wikipedia.org/wiki/course%C3%A4chsische_Postmeilens%C3%A4ule#Nachfolger

Royal Saxon milestones were set up in Saxony from the late middle of the 19th century after a new measurement had become necessary due to the conversion of the mile to a new length.
This is a so-called station stone, from which a road survey was always based.
