    There are various accounts of the Salzbubenkreuz, the most likely one is as follows: around 1760 a son from the salt farm drove cows to the butcher in Glottertal. On the way back from Glottertal to Eschbach he was robbed and killed here.

      “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. "

      (Text source: Dean Rainald M. Ollig

      in: “Crossroads. Small sacred monuments as a sign of popular piety ")
