This atonement cross is based on a legend that tells of two siblings arguing so badly that they died from their injuries. What's special about this place is that the cross, which presumably dates back to the 15th century, was lost for decades. Only a storm and flooding in 1980 unearthed the cross. It was erected at its current location in 1982.
