    This is one of over 300 knight's stones of the Palatinate Forest Association.
    "As [its] name indicates, in earlier times there was a fire place for woodworkers here (Eitelmann, p. 69). [...] The fire place is located directly on the border of the forest departments that belong to Flemlingen and Hainfeld. An Several forest paths converge here. [...]
    Not far from the Ritterstein there is a boundary stone that shows the course of the Haingeraide border. There are numerous other boundary stones in the surrounding area. From the fire place, a forest path [hiking mark "red cross"] leads directly to the cherry tree. There the path meets the route of today’s elevated road again.”

      The Ritterstein "Feurplatz" is located on the elevated road from Heldenstein to Taubensuhl. This was once the place of fire for the woodworkers of earlier times.

        It's very nicely covered with moss, beautiful... it's heart-warming.
