This survey stone was placed on Vyhledy/Gückelsberg in 1864. The summit was outside the Saxony territory, so a special permit from Austrian Empire was necessary. Later a hilltop restaurant has been built here.
After WW II, the restaurant was demolished and the survey stone was lost among the ruins. It has been discovered and erected again in 2003.
Visit Instructions:
1. A closeup photo of the waymark with your GPS, or (a part of) you in it, is required.
2. An area photo including the waymark in the view is highly appreciated.
