The Dollendorf Way of the Cross runs from the northern edge of Dollendorf to Schloßthal, starting from the Catholic parish church of St. John the Baptist. There are nine footfalls along the way. At the highest point, at the seventh footfall, approximately halfway along the path, stands the Chapel of St. Anthony of Padua.

The original Way of the Cross, established around 1700, only led as far as this point. Only later was it extended to Schloßthal. Therefore, at the end of the campsite near Schlossthal, the ninth Station of the Cross is now the final cross. It was erected in the second half of the 19th century. During this time, some of the older sandstone crosses were also renovated.

The ninth cross is an approximately three-meter-high, unadorned Station of the Cross made of heavily weathered red sandstone. A tapered cruciform structure with cloverleaf ends stands on a pedestal. The inscription is no longer legible.

The Stations of the Cross procession leads on the morning of Good Friday from the parish church in Dollendorf to the final cross in Schloßthal. Source: kuladig.de/Objektansicht/KLD-344419
