Fraubillenkreuz

The women's cross is a menhir that has been fashioned into a cross. It stands on a roadside on the Ferschweiler plateau in the Eifel, between Ferschweiler, Schankweiler, Nusbaum-Rohrbach and Bollendorf.

According to tradition, the missionary Willibrord, revered in the Eifel region, personally carved the menhir, which dates back to about 5,000 years ago, into a cruciform form and thus became Christianized. In the stone two figure niches are carved, which are surrounded by holes. He is still about 3.5 meters high today.

The huge stone cross, hewn from a menhier presumably from Celtic times, is over 3 meters high and has an impressive format. The sloping position also radiates something time-honored.
Definitely a great photo opportunity.

The menhir stands northwest of Ferschweiler in the forest at a crossroads of hiking trails. The Fraubillenkreuz is a menhir that is now about 3.30 meters high and has been reworked into the shape of a cross. It is estimated that it used to be over 4 meters high. The menhir was probably reworked into a cross during the Christianization of the region in the 9th century. According to legend, it was the Irish wandering monk St. Willibrord from the Echternach monastery himself who carved it. In addition, niches were carved into both flat sides of the menhir, apparently for figures of saints. Source: tw.strahlen.org/praehistorie/rheinlandpfalz/ferschweilerkreuz.html
