A signpost column, also called a way column or way column, is a historical form of the signpost. These pillars were made of stone and showed the traveler the way for decades. Signposts are classified as minor monuments and are often already included in the respective monument protection lists.
Signpost pillars are often smaller than other stone waymarks or can only be distinguished from them by their shape. As historical witnesses, they stand in a row with post mile columns, post or road milestones, road or road keeper stones, corridor or district columns, place-name signs or stones and boundary stones.
