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.
