Mordsteine, Memorial stones in Sennestadt, Germany
Two sandstone monuments stand 90 centimeters tall at the intersection of Ostallee and Hellweg, positioned on a hill within a fir forest.
The stones were erected on October 3, 1660, to commemorate Maria Helena and Anna Tambor, who were murdered at this location by a Brandenburg regiment deserter.
The inscriptions on both stones feature detailed messages in German, documenting the tragic events and serving as a warning to future generations.
Visitors can find these historical monuments near the Frieda-Nadig-Haus senior center, with an information board installed in 2014 explaining their significance.
The stones are crafted as single pieces incorporating both the plate and pedestal, with the northern stone being larger than its weathered southern counterpart.
