On a nameless hill above Rohr there is a summit cross and a relaxation bed. From the couch has a beautiful view of the landscape of the Northern Eifel.

“Each of these crosses can tell its own story and what motivated people to erect“ their ”cross at this point. (...) These crossroads were erected as visible signs and attract the eyes of many people. The cross is a symbol of life. It stands as a sign of our Christian hope and wants to direct our gaze to Jesus Christ, who overcame death (...). The cross is part of our life, just as it was part of the life of Jesus. So I hope that many people ... visit the crossroads, whether as places of silence and breathing before God, whether as places of congregation meeting, prayer and praise of God. "

A great place in the sun: birds chirping, the hum of insects, distant tractor hum and sport planes in the sky 😀
