history

The bell stone at a rest area was first mentioned on November 15, 1682 in a protocol of the Wittheit as a location information. The previously circular, gray-red sandstone with a diameter of 1.5 m and a thickness of 26 to 34 cm comes from the sand side of Hasenbüren on the left bank of the Weser . In 1929 it was moved to today's elevated location in the outer dyke of the Weser. The relief of a bell is visible on the front after a drawing from 1774 by the engineer captain Rudolph Ernst Schilling (1728–1774). The year 1357 can be recognized, including perhaps the rest of the Bremen key on the Bremen coat of arms . The other side bears three weathered lines in Gothic minuscule from the 14th century.
