      "The listed post-mile pillar in Saxon Saxony is a distance pillar and is located on a small jewelery square in the immediate vicinity of the Evangelical Church of St. Catherine in the southern Brandenburg town of Elsterwerda in the Elbe-Elster district."

        The column in Elsterwerda was made by a Dresden stonemason who answered to the wonderfully delicate name of parsley. In the 18th century, an embassy mail ran twice a week on the Berlin-Elsterwerda-Dresden-Vienna route. Later it was called Dragoon Post or Fahr- und Schnellpost. The Elsterwerda station was at the Rautenkranz, the city's finest inn, and in the post office opposite, today's town hall. The Elsterwerda Column was erected in 1738 and was one of the last in the Electorate of Saxony.
