      - at the "Steinhaus" in Besigheim, Ludwigsburg district, Baden-Württemberg.
      - Octagonal Staufer stele
      - Its inscriptions refer to Besigheim's relationship with the Staufers and the Margraves of Baden
      - The stele was inaugurated in 2012
      - Part of a Europe-wide project to erect memorial stones in as many cities as possible that are connected to the history of the Staufers


      Typical features of the "Staufer steles" are:
      - Octagonal floor plan
      - Consists of four parts (base, shaft, center, and crown drum)
      - The upper part is a golden band symbolizing the imperial crown
      - The inscriptions are distributed on four of the eight sides, above which
      a coat of arms is carved
