From up here, from the Gruibinger Wiesle, the view opens up far beyond the foothills of the Alb.

At this location at approx. 760 metres ü. NN, the „Century Stone“ by the artist Uli Gsell is a work of art made of rock slabs dedicated to the 20th century. The terms inscribed on the stone are intended to encourage visitors to look back on the past century.
