Boundary Stone of 1731
Highlight • Monument
on the border between the Duchy of Palatinate-Zweibrücken and the Archbishopric of Trier from 1514 to 1801. The inscriptions are P.Z., the lion of Palatinate-Zweibrücken, and the cross coat of arms of the Electorate of Trier. After 1815/16, the stone was used on the same border between the Grand Duchy of Oldenburg and the Duchy of Saxe-Coburg (from 1834 Kingdom of Prussia). In 1920, the stone was not replaced and served as a special or sub-boundary stone in section D of the Saar Territory border with the number 51.³ Source: Text of information panel

Start of the Schmuggler-Pfad (Smuggler's Trail) Namborn
Highlight • Trail
In its approximately 13 km long course, the »smugglers' path« crosses historical borders several times, which existed from the Middle Ages until after the Second World War. Smugglers carried “hot goods” across the borders. From the 16th to the 18th century, this border between the powerful Archdiocese of Trier and the Duchy of Pfalz-Zweibrücken divided the country and people into Catholics and Protestants. After the Napoleonic era, the border line between the Duchy of Saxony-Coburg and the Grand Duchy of Oldenburg ran at the same point. Smuggling last flourished on the border between the "German Reich" and the "Saar area" from 1920-1935. On the way there are still some boundary stones from those times. On the way there are always wonderful views of pretty villages and rolling hills: in the north the Hunsrück with its highest elevation, the Erbeskopf, in the west the Schaumberg and in the south the Göttelborner Höhe, as the edge of the Saar coal basin. The water treading facility in Farthelborn invites you from May to October to provide warm feet with pleasant cooling. Source: Text information board
