Scallop stones
Notes on evidence of medieval building culture along the way
The central signpost is formed by the scallop shell stones. They are still made today under the patronage of the Saarbrücken Regional Association by young people from the Zentrum für Bildung und Beruf Saar gGmbH in Burbach (ZBB) as part of qualification measures and attached to stelae.
The individual positions are marked with a red dot on the interactive map. When you click on them, a small window will show you the GPS position, brief art-historical information about the respective object, and a hint about how many kilometers the medieval monument is located away from the official routes.
