It is a copy of the column, the original of the column is in the church in Breitenau. The column bears the year 1732 and the row number 16. On the occasion of the celebrations for the 800th anniversary of the Wettin house , a restoration was carried out at the instigation of the local priest. The tip that had fallen off was put back on and the column was whitewashed. In 1956 cracks in the stone were repaired and the partially weathered inscriptions were hewn. Another restoration took place after the column was damaged in a traffic accident in 1985. The column has now been completely reproduced.
