Landmarks

A boundary stone on a source brook of the Huckelheimer Bach separated the historical areas of the Grand Duchy of Hesse and the Grand Duchy of Frankfurt

On the right slope of the valley and through the bed of a small source brook of the Huckelheimer Bach runs a series of well-preserved, old boundary stones from 1810. They separated the historical areas of two earlier states in the Rhine Confederation .
