The Theure Christian is a roadside monument. It is considered the oldest road monument in Saxony-Anhalt. It is located on the old connecting road between Radegast, a district of the city of Südliches Anhalt and Zörbig in the state of Saxony-Anhalt, district of Anhalt-Bitterfeld, on the former state border between the Duchy of Saxony-Merseburg and later the Electorate of Saxony and the Principality of Anhalt- Dessau, later the Duchy of Anhalt. Until June 30, 2007, this was also the border of the districts of Bitterfeld and Köthen, which were merged in Saxony-Anhalt as a result of the second district reform.

The monument was erected in the baroque architectural style in 1688 to commemorate the fortification of the dam through the Fuhne lowlands between Radegast and Zörbig. It consists of a 5 m high substructure with a square base, each side of which is around 2 m long. It consists of a quarry stone foundation, a sandstone base and a shaft made of plastered bricks and a sandstone cornice. The tower, which is around 4 m high up to the top of the ball, is made of red sandstone and is divided into a pedestal, a pyramid and finally a large ball. The monument has little figurative decoration, but has the lavish decorations on the inscriptions typical of the Baroque era.

The Fuhnedamm fortified a previously swampy section of the trade route from Magdeburg to Leipzig. It was mentioned for the first time on October 21, 1475, but did not withstand the stress in the long term. Repairs and fortifications were probably not carried out for centuries because three states bordered each other - Anhalt-Köthen, Anhalt-Dessau and Electoral Saxony - which apparently made no attempt to agree on how the work should be carried out.

It was only Duke Christian I of Electoral Saxony-Merseburg who decided to renew the Fuhnedamm, although no obstacles were put in his way from the Anhalt side. The dam was finally fortified between 1683 and 1685. The roadside monument was built three years later in honor of Duke Christian.
