At this point there is a memorial cross for the dead of the plague epidemic during the 30 Years War. The exact location of the plague cemetery in St. Wolfgang can no longer be determined.

The "Plague Cemetery" is a reminder of the black bubonic plague that raged in the area during the Thirty Years' War (1618-1648). The mass grave of this epidemic was long forgotten until around 1783 a torture was erected in memory. In 1933 the pastor at the time replaced it with today's plague cross.
