The Lilienstein adorns the logo of the Saxon Switzerland National Park, founded in 1991. High above, the table mountain towers over the Elbe valley so prominently and impressively that Augustus the Strong, Elector of Saxony and King of Poland, climbed it in 1708. We still use the steps cut into the rock specifically for this purpose in the southern ascent today.
