    🪵 Old boundary stone on the Kirschenlandweg
    Between Frohnhofen and Saal, these massive sandstone monuments bear witness to the former state border between the Electorate of the Palatinate and Palatinate-Zweibrücken. Erected in 1776, they bear the diamond-shaped coat of arms of the Wittelsbach dynasty as well as old regional designations such as "CP" (Electorate of the Palatinate) and "PZ" (Palatinate-Zweibrücken).


    💡 Tip:
    If you look closely, you can still see the historical engravings – ideal for a little journey back in time in the middle of the forest!

    In the middle of the quiet forest area of the "Ackerswald" section lies a mossy boundary stone – part of the historic border demarcation of 1776 between the Electorate of the Palatinate and Palatinate-Zweibrücken.
    The imposing sandstones display the diamond-shaped coat of arms of the House of Wittelsbach on two sides, as well as the initials "CP" and "PZ" for the former rulers.
    A silent witness to feudal power relations – and an exciting photo spot for hikers with an eye for detail.
