history
It is a column without any script or coat of arms. In its shape it is similar to the post mile pillars that were erected in the first half of the 18th century in the Electorate of Saxony by order of the Elector Friedrich August I of Saxony by the Land and Border Commissioner Adam Friedrich Zürner . At the top she wears a crescent moon. It was probably only set up as a decorative pillar for spa guests. The time of its creation is unclear; it was probably created at the same time as the post mile columns. On the miles sheet recorded by Friedrich Ludwig Aster in 1782, the column is recorded as a " pyramid ". In a plan by Berggießhübel from around 1796, the column is recorded as a " stone column ", while the Saxon distance column Berggießhübel is recorded as a " post column ".
