The Tjedestein

The Tjedestein is a small cross stone probably erected during the Thirty Years War in the tree population "thirteen oaks", at the corner of Langfeldweg / Wiesener Str. In the north of Wiesens , an eastern district of Aurich in Lower Saxony . It is on the list of architectural monuments in Aurich .

The small stone mark on a rolling stone plinth has a fork-like structure in the lower side area and a strongly weathered, square-shaped representation of four crosses on the upper side .

The legend calls him Tjedestein after a maid who is said to have been shot here during the Thirty Years' War. Presumably it is a stone monument from the Middle Ages . A prehistoric meaning of the stone could not yet be made credible.
