This boundary stone is a so-called "Dreimärker", since three districts meet at this point: Ober-Mörlen / Bad Nauheim / Ockstadt.
The boundary stone was set in 1747 and is one of the oldest preserved boundary stones in our region. The stone was restored a few years ago and placed on a foundation. It is a listed building.
