Here is a very beautiful point of view on Annecy, the mountain of Age and the surrounding countryside.

The small sacred monument we encounter here is a universal symbol of the death of Jesus Christ, the Son of God who became man and was executed on the cross – but at the same time, it is also a sign of the overcoming of death in the resurrection. Thus, all crosses point us to the Easter perspective of hope – always inherent in Christianity – which, through faith in God, firmly trusts in the ability to overcome death and suffering.
+ "We Christians associate our hopes with the graces of heaven in particular. This gives our hope a concrete connection and grows from faith in God's goodness and love. And we know whom we can thank when our hopes are fulfilled, and whom we can entrust when our hopes are not. I believe this certainty is a grace in itself that we are allowed to experience." (Christiane Völkel)
