Stone cross with a broken cross arm. Its designation as "Boy's Cross" comes from the legend often found in connection with stone crosses in the Odenwald, that two boys would have tickled a third to death at the place of the cross. The cross was temporarily moved to the Iron Way, later to the old school, and returned to its original location in the late 20th century.
