Hiking

The royal Saxon milestones, the successor to the Electoral Saxon postal milestones (2nd generation of milestones) were erected between 1859 and 1865 at a distance of 3750 meters. The stones were manufactured centrally in Dresden and distributed throughout the Kingdom of Saxony as half, full and station stones. Her only ornaments are two cast-iron crowns, which often go missing and are therefore replaced from time to time.

Another of these stones is in Hohnstein at the bus stop near the cemetery.
