    The Leopoldstein, located in Heidelberg's city forest, is a historical memorial stone dating back to 1851.
    The monument commemorates Charles I Frederick Leopold, Grand Duke of Baden, who assumed the reins of government of the Duchy of Baden in 1830 as the fourth Grand Duke.


    The monument, once 2.5 m high, was damaged in the 1950s.

    Location
    The memorial stone for the Grand Duke is located on the Höhenweg,
    approximately 450 m south of the Haus der Astronomie educational institution,
    immediately at a star-shaped fork in the path that leads in seven different directions through Heidelberg's city forest.
