Lulustein / Lulu's stone

Lulu was the nickname of Napoléon Eugène Louis Jean Joseph, the son of the French King Napoleon III. When Lulu was 14, his father sent him off to Saarbrücken to fight the Prussians. On the spot of this stone, he fired his first canon shot. The life of Lulu was not particularly fortunate. The French lost to the Prussians and Lulu died at the age of 23 at the hands of Zulus, whilst helping the British in South Africa.
