In memory of the 140 Austrian soldiers who died of "hospital fever" (typhus) in Rheinbreitbach in 1793 and were buried in a mass grave.

During the wars of freedom of the 17th century in the 1990s, imperial soldiers lay in Breitbach. Many died of typhus and are buried in a mass grave on the embankment above the old castle, about 100 meters on the castle in front of Koppel's fountain next to the brook.
