Beautifully turned wooden column from the 17th century. It asks the pilgrim to think of the dead who cannot find rest.

There is a nice description with the associated legends at the same hiking highlight komoot.de/highlight/3137254

The "Green Martyrdom" is a wooden memorial column with three panels at the top, protected by a tin roof. It features an old view of Dietramszell (before the fire of 1636) and an image of St. Hubertus, the patron saint of hunters. It is said that the column shimmered greenishly, hence its name. The wayside shrine was renovated in 1950.
