Since around 1840, a triangular stone has marked the point where the districts of Gimsbach, Theisbergstegen, and Rutsweiler am Glan meet.
Until 1972, it also served as the district boundary between Kaiserslautern and Kusel.
In 1988, the original stone was replaced by a new three-marker.

The triangular boundary stone on the Potzberg, known as the "Dreieckstein", has marked the confluence of the municipal boundaries of Gimsbach, Theisbergstegen, and Rutsweiler since the original survey around 1840. It stands as a historical testament to former district boundaries and is a well-known excursion destination in the Palatinate. It served as a border point between the municipalities until the administrative reform in 1972 and also separated the districts of Kaiserslautern and Kusel.
