Castle stein with Rittersmann and Lanzenknecht
drinking at table.
Only evidence that I can find being Girmscheid is pewter lid
also found on Girmscheid Frauenkircke Tower unnumbered but marked TW. TW attributed to Girmscheid on Steinmarks
“Ob Rittersmann, ob Lanzenknecht,
ein jeder gern sein Schoppen stecht.”
(Whether knight or soldier,
each gladly downs his portion of beer.)
