On the occasion of an interview about the writings of Saint Augustine (354 to 430), one question was what would the Bishop of Hippo want to say to us people of today? „I believe he would call on us to allow ourselves the luxury of silence, because we are all in a perpetual vortex of noise. And this is now the true luxury: a space of silence… in which one simply listens to the voice of one's own heart… We never listen to our heart, which is the most precious thing we have.“ (Silvia Guidi, L'Osservatore Romano). The rest area set up at this small sacred monument located here can invite us to do just that.

After the observation tower from 1868 had collapsed, the Pfälzerwald-Verein built a new, 21 m high tower in 1928/29. It offered living spaces, electric light, and running water. From there, one could see far over the Pfälzerwald and the Vosges mountains to the Hunsrück, Taunus, Odenwald, and Black Forest. Therefore, the Kalmit was considered the "most beautiful vantage point in the Palatinate".

Locals often refer to it as the "Wetterkreuz" instead of the Bischofskreuz. The last approx. 100 m to the summit can be managed with a mountain bike, but older bikers should partially push their bikes due to numerous tree roots and stones.

A very beautiful path leads past the stone pyramid, which marks the highest point of the Blätterberg. But there are other markings here too. Ancient boundary stones and rocks with boundary marks can be found on the path. The cross stands for the Hochstift Speyer.
