A nice place to visit would be the owner's cache GCQFQT "Lilienstein" [http://www.geocaching.com/seek/cache_details.aspx?guid=57c1dc28-36db-4973-a520-ebb01876aada].
Augustus II, nicknamed "the Strong" (May 12, 1670 – February 1, 1733), Elector of Saxony (where he was known as Frederick Augustus I) from 1694 to 1733, King of Poland from 1697 to 1704 and again from 1709 to 1733. Augustus II was called Augustus the Strong for his bearlike strength and also for his numerous offspring. It is sometimes written that he sired 365 children. Although this figure would be extremely difficult to verify, Augustus II did father a very large number of illegitimate children.
