The Löchlewald cross is a wayside cross. It is one of the eight wayside crosses along the Wöschbach cross-hiking trail.

The cross hiking trail begins and ends in Wöschbach and circles the present-day district of the municipality of Pfinztal to the southeast. It leads hikers past various types of street, devotional, path and field crosses, including the Löchlewald cross.

"Each of these crosses can tell its own story and what motivated people to erect "their" cross at this spot. (...) These wayside crosses were erected as visible signs and attract the attention of many people. The cross is a symbol of life. It stands as a sign of our Christian hope and aims to direct our gaze to Jesus Christ, who has overcome death (...). The cross is part of our lives, just as it was part of the life of Jesus.
So I hope that many people ... will visit the wayside crosses, whether as places of silence and breathing before God, whether as places of community gathering, prayer and praise of God."
(Text source: Dean Rainald M. Ollig
in: "Wayside crosses. Small sacred monuments as signs of popular piety")
