The charge is the Hornhäuser Reiter, the motif of the Hornhäuser Reiterstein, the Riderstone of Hornhausen. The stone, unearthed in 1874, is the first of four alter panels found in the minicipality of Hornhausen in Börde district. The rider is presumed to depict a Frankish warrior from the 7th century.
