Dedicated to his holy namesake in 1840 by an Anton Müller from Langscheid.

With its unusual design, the ANTONIUS CROSS is surprising at this point, a little off the path a few meters behind a bench and in the shade of a tree. This small sacred monument made of stone, dedicated to St. Anthony according to the inscription in 1840, does not have a body, but rather the dedicatory inscription at the place where the crucified Christ would be seen. Above that at the top of the longitudinal bar are the four letters "INRI", which is (in Latin script, so our "J" as "I") the abbreviation for "Jesus of Nazareth, King of the Jews".
