    The tribe of the Bernkasteler Sankt-Georg-pathfinder restored the Matthias or Scheuerner Cross from 1668 in 1972. The wayside shrine was fastened with iron clips, cleaned and painted with weatherproof stone paints. The cross bears the inscription:



    ANNO 1668 HAS THE HONORABLE

    MATTHEIS PETRVS FROM BERENKESSEL

    THIS CREVTZ ZV HONOR GOD

    LET UP



    What is special about this wayside shrine is that under the cross, next to the Mother of God, Mary Magdalene and John, the apostle Matthias is also shown with the ax.

      Located in the middle of the forest above Bernkastel-Kues, invites you to take a break on the steep ascent to Longkamp
