    The First Free German Youth Day took place in October 1913 on the Hoher Meißner as a "Youth Festival" and meeting of the youth movement with 2000 to 3000 participants.
    The aim of the youth festival was to demonstrate the unity of the youth movement with hiking birds, life reformers, school and student associations and other groups both internally and externally.
    The desire was for an alternative event to the ceremonies of the Kaiserreich for the 100th anniversary of the Battle of the Nations in Leipzig, which were perceived as unfestive and were already marked by the impending First World War.

      At the destination of the Schneehagenweg (Ludwigstein Castle to the Hohen Meißner approx. 17 km) is the memorial stone where the Free German Youth Day took place in 1913.

        The LM (Ludwigstein / Meissner) Weg or Schneehagenweg begins or ends here. It leads to the youth castle Ludwigstein.
