The two stools, whose stone backrests are engraved, are a small work of art. Historical information can be read on it.
The plaques commemorate the lost Paulusbrunn: in 1930 there were 166 properties there. It was the most populous settlement in the Tachau part of the Bohemian Forest. After the Second World War, the German population was expelled and the site, including the church, was demolished. The rubble has been cleared away so that the remains of the wall are no longer visible. The cemetery is the only thing that has remained of Paulusbrunn.

The village of Paulusbrunn was once located here and, like many villages directly on the Iron Curtain, the place was completely destroyed and disappeared into the border strip. In 1930 there were 166 properties and in 1943 1,451 residents lived here. There is no house left in Paulusbrunn / Pavlův Studenec on the Bohemian-Bavarian border.
