    High Cross (1738) - Alzenau 🚴‍♂️

    Along with the castle and the parish church of St. Justinus, it is one of the landmarks of the town of Alzenau. They form the Alzenau triad. The cross was donated in 1738 by the Habermann couple. They owned a mill, which later became a corrugated cardboard and paper factory. Until 1852, this cross stood at the triangle formed by Hanauer Straße and Mühlweg. It is reported that many skeletal remains were found there. The site may have been the Alzenau Plague Cemetery. Those who died of the plague were not buried near the village church. In Hörstein, 400 people died of the plague in four weeks alone in 1625/1626. 🚴‍♂️
