    Hiking

    The so-called Theler Columns are a cultural and historical landmark of Höckendorf. Conrad von Theler, landlord of Höckendorf and probably the richest mountain lord in Saxony at the time, had these stone witnesses made of sandstone set in 1331, allegedly as atonement for the manslaughter he is said to have committed on the pastor of Höckendorf. The municipal administration and the parish see the renovation and preservation of the Theler columns as their common task.
    In November 2001, one of the three remaining pillars on Kirchweg was rededicated after restoration in a solemn prayer service by the parish priest. (gemeinde-hoeckendorf.de)
