In memory of the last wolf in Lower Hesse, a memorial stone (Wolf Stone) was erected by the Spangenberg Forestry Office on August 5, 1806, and a certificate was drawn up about the celebration held there. See also the protocol from 1806 below. The Wolf Stone is inscribed on both sides: Beim zeitige: Först: Grau can be read on the front. The 18th: NO: 1805. is a wolf shot here. from Rit: v. Wolff is written on the back of the monument. (Quote from the Regio-Wiki) Fortunately, the wolves are on the advance again.
