According to the legend, two farm maids from Oberweißenbach loved the same guy and when they came here after the harvest, they came so much into dispute that they mutilated each other with their scythes (Ref: Schmeissner).

The stone cross is relatively well preserved and has massive crossbeams. It was only found after the war by the tenant of the property, the carpenter Nikol Jäger, completely overgrown in its present place by the lawn and raised again. On the back, facing away from the paths, one recognizes indistinctly cross-like, chiselled signs, which were certainly later attached. (after Schmeissner)
