    "A Saxon Post Miles Column, colloquially known as a Saxon Post Miles 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 depending on the distance." - de.wikipedia.org/wiki/course%C3%A4chsische_Postmeilens%C3%A4ule#quartermilestone

    This example is a quarter-milestone that stood on the Alte Dresden-Teplitzer Poststrasse, which is still signposted in the region today.

    The Kursächsische Postsäulen are historic stone pillars built in the 1700s throughout Saxony to measure distances and mark postal routes. They were built by Saxony's ruler August the Strong in the style of the ancient Romans.

    This Viertelmeilenstein (quarter mile marker) Nr. 11 from 1729 was restored in 2012 and is along the Alte Dresden-Teplitzer Poststraße.
