The day before the fall of the wall, Erich Honecker is said to have fired his last deer at these spots. In total, he has killed at least 512 deer in the Schorfheide.

this is where Erich Honecker killed his last deer on November 8th, 1989. A day later, the border was opened, heralding the end of the Schorfheide state hunting area. The stone and a plaque commemorate this place.
