Three Coats of Arms

Highlight • Monument

On a rock you will find the coats of arms of the Kingdom of Bohemia, the Electorate of Bavaria and the Duchy of Palatinate. After decades of disputes about the exact course of the border, an agreement was finally reached in 1754. To commemorate this and to mark the border, the three coats of arms were carved into the stone.

Fir tree (910 m) with the "lighthouse of humanity"
The lighthouse of humanity has been on this summit since 2007. A symbol of peace: around 10 tons of stones were walled up for this purpose - from different regions and countries.


Particularly beautiful, four individually manufactured glass elements glow at night:

A world disc, a Christian cross, an Islamic crescent and a star of David send light signals into the world to call us to more peace and understanding among one another.

A very nice tour with a magnificent view. A stop at the mountain inn is a "must". See nice hosts.

Traditionally, there is a hike at the end before we start the summer holidays
