French jumps 1813; During the Naples Liberation Wars was in Sept. 1813 on the "Broad Heath" north-east. from Langenhennersdorf a large French. troop camp. Its main entrances were “entrenched”, and the “Kegelstein” (“Bernhardstein”) was included in this line of defense to protect the “Hohe Straße”. Sappers (construction soldiers) of the 42nd Div. Mouton Duvernet lumbered the south-east. Slopes of the "Kegelstein" from and erected tree and branch barricades as well as barricades made of boulders. After the French retreated at the beginning of October 1813 (fighting in Hermsdorf, today Bielatal – mass grave find in 1957), the barricades and barriers were "pulled down" by the population, the clear cuts were reforested and so today there are no traces of this on the plateau near the "Bernhardstein". military history Episode more available.
