<div id="ygrps-yiv-1334489247">Alas.... The building is no more. According to http://www.luzicke-<br/>
hory.cz/tourist6.html#Luz , the building burned to the ground in <br/>
1946. The circumstances of the fire have never been cleared, it says <br/>
here. Some say the fire was on New Years Day, others mention January <br/>
8. German newspapers say that the cause of the fire remains unknown <br/>
to this day. But some former Czech soldiers say that the building <br/>
burned down on July 3, and that it was set afire by the Germans, who <br/>
didn&#39;t want the building to fall into the hands of the Czech. The <br/>
picture is of the remaining platform where once stood the building.<br/>

&gt; Thanks Peter...(disregard that initial reply...I was having <br/>
keyboard problems!)....now I&#39;m wondering if that frontier porch <br/>
crosses the border more or less perpendicularly...or the monument may <br/>
indicate that the path parallels the border...sigh...<br/>

&gt;   I think it does! Luz hill (or Lausche in German) is on the border <br/>
(look for example at http://www.luzicke-<br/>
hory.cz/htm/pohl/luz_h08.html ). <br/>

&gt;     How about the photo of the &quot;frontier path between the rock of <br/>
Krkav?í kameny near Dolní Sv?tlá and the Lu? hill&quot; with the modern <br/>
monument?  Would this mark czde also? Bill <br/>

&gt;        Another fairly old stone can be seen at <br/>
http://www.natur.cuni.cz/~kuhn/gallery2.html (Old boundary <br/>
&gt;       stone from 1672 north of Polesí near Rynoltice). I&#39;ve looked <br/>
up the location and although I can&#39;t be <br/>
&gt;       sure, it may be a working one on the czde border (near the <br/>
German village of Luftkurort <br/>
&gt;       Lueckendorf). So it&#39;s probably not a gold medal candidate, <br/>
but nevertheless a nice one. <br/>
&gt;       Wonder what FAB stands for... International rescue? <br/>
