In September 1864, the survey station on the Scheibenberg was put into operation by a survey column. With the degree measurement and triangulation, the state survey took place in the Kingdom of Saxony. The survey tower was blown up due to dilapidation in 1971.

The triangulation columns are listed as technical monuments. "- de.wikipedia.org/wiki/K%C3%B6nlicher-S%C3%A4chsische_Triangulirung
