There is a historic signpost on the connecting road from Maroldsweisach to Hellingen, right next to the country road and the former inner-German border. It has been redecorated. The places to be reached are indicated on the visible surfaces with details of kilometers.

Where unity is lived
Hellingen:
The monumental individual parts - each over two meters high and weighing around 150 kilograms - now adorn a stretch of land near Hellingen in the Hildburghausen district, right on the former German-German border. A road leads from Thuringia to Bavaria here and here the Day of Unity is celebrated and lived by the people every year, says Heldburg's mayor Christopher Other. The monument is to be inaugurated on October 3rd.

This new monument is located at the southernmost point of Thuringia, right on the border with Bavaria. Each of the letters is about 230 cm high and weighs about 150 kg. Before the work of art was installed here, it was part of the exhibition "Everyday Unity. Portrait of a Transitional Society". Produced in Dresden by the artist Hüseyin Arda, the work represents the way of life and cohesion of the region.
