Except for the year and some words about the misdeed, the text is not readable, but the cross is very distinct, possibly because this part of the stone was covered by earth at the original place.
The habit of setting atonement stones was widespread in Europe in the late Middle Ages. The erection of an atonement stone was part of the atonement agreement between two hostile parties who in this way evaded a feud. Erected at the crime scene, the stone preserves the memory of an outrageous murder for many generations, and throughout his life, the perpetrator was publicly confronted with his crime.
Four medieval atonement stones have been preserved in Dithmarschen. In addition to this atonement stone from 1630, there is also the Klaas-Stein in Schalkholz, the Swyn-Stele in Lunden, and the Frens-Stein in Heide.
