    In the Upper Park, there is the Temple of Cecilia, but also an obelisk, commemorating how Frederick the Great's brother, Prince Henry of Prussia, bravely forced the Gabel Pass in Bohemia. It was a skirmish rather than a battle. At the unveiling of the monument, the ravine with the road to Sarbinowo served as a mountain pass, and the then-reconstruction group recreated its capture.
    Today, walking along the road towards the Temple of Cecilia, we pass the obelisk hidden in the greenery.

    Hiking

    From Tamsel (today Dąbroszyn) an old cobblestone road leads to the neighboring Zorndorf. It leads through a rising valley between two mountain ridges. In the rear area stands the Cäcilientempel, which is signposted on the main road and is relatively well-known. To the right of the aforementioned road, however, there is also a very beautiful obelisk, which has been wonderfully restored. Unfortunately, I could not find any information about the context of this monument and there is nothing readable on the stone.
    Perhaps someone else can help!
