Unfortunately, only one side of the boundary stone has survived. The Mainz wheel and the year 1697 are clearly visible. The other side should show the Nassau Lion, but it is unfortunately completely weathered.

Although this area is still officially part of the Weisel district, it is practically part of Lipporn and Wollmerschied. In 1697 and 1698, a well-documented boundary demarcation took place here between the bailiwick of Schönau, or Nassau-Weilburg (Northwest), and the Electorate of Mainz (Churmainz). This stone dates from this period and bears not only the Wheel of Mainz on one side and the Nassau Lion on the other, but also the year 1697. It is made of red sandstone.
