      "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 Jesus' life. 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." (Dean Rainald M. Ollig in "Wayside Crosses")

        Cross at the forest; Donated in 2019 by Fam Speck. Beautiful location with a view of the Laacher See and the abbey. From here it goes up to the Krufter Ofen (463m) and the Teufelskanzel / Krufter Waldsee
