This is where the golden hat was found. The "Golden Hat" is made from one piece of embossed sheet gold cone, which was found in 1835 in Schifferstadt. Its age is estimated to be 3,000 years. The original can be admired in the "Historisches Museum der Pfalz" in Speyer. A copy can be found at the town hall of Schifferstadt.

The ornaments may conceal a complex calendar of figures still waiting to be deciphered.
