    This knight's stone, maintained by the PWV, is very well preserved and is located on Römerstrasse opposite the Totenkopfhütte. The Palatinate had been crossed by traffic routes since the earliest times. The Römerstraße comes from Speyer via Hüttenhohl, Totenkopf and the Alte Steige down to Breitenstein and on to Johanniskreuz.

        The way from Speyer to Metz probably ran here in the distant past. The knight's stone reminds of this.
