    Located on Bälower Dorfstraße, a section of the popular Elbe Cycle Path in the Prignitz region, is this historic granite signpost, believed to date back to the 19th century. This monument once served as a guide for travelers and still symbolically connects the surrounding villages today. The massive granite pillar bears carved inscriptions in Gothic script indicating directions to neighboring towns. Such signposts were part of the early transport infrastructure in rural areas and reflect the mobility needs of the time.

    Today, the signpost is a listed monument and is considered a culturally and historically valuable testimony to regional transport history – an interesting trailside feature for cyclists and history buffs on the Elbe Cycle Path.
