The "Saxon Post Miles Column" indicates the distances on the chausseen
and tells about Baruth's belonging to Saxony until 1815.

Baruth had belonged to Ernestine Electoral Saxony since 1485 and only became Prussian in 1815 with the Congress of Vienna. So, since 1730, we have also found a Saxon postal miles column here. The one standing here today is a replica from 2014. The mayor of many years, Horst Wende, was very committed to this. He collected donations of around 20,000 euros and added 7,000 euros from his own pocket and unfortunately died 7 months before the inauguration (August 2014).
