The Hirschenstein is a mountain in the Saxon Ore Mountains. It lies about 4 kilometres west of Schneeberg. On the summit is an historic trig point set up as part of the Royal Saxon Triangulation Network. == History == Even before it was settled by Franks the summit was known to the Sorbs who called it the ''Recma''. In 1864 state surveyors erected a granite column at the top with the inscription "Hirschenstein Station of the Royal Saxon Survey" (''Station Hirschenstein der königlich-sächsischen Triangulation'').〔(freiepresse.de ''Höchster Berg im Kreis hat keinen Aussichtsturm '' ), accessed on 4 December 2009〕 In the years 1940/41 a 60 metre high wooden tower was erected over the survey point, which was also used as an observation tower. However just 10 years later the stability of the tower could no longer be guaranteed and it was taken down. In 1964 the Hartmannsdorf Forest (''Hartmannsdorfer Wald'') that surrounded the summit became a military out-of-bounds zone. No until the disbandment of the Schneeberg mountain infantry battalion in March 2008 did the 1,600 hectare area of woodland become accessible again. The Hirschenstein is the highest point in the district of Zwickau. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Hirschenstein (Saxony)」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
