    You will find the cross next to the INSA house, near the Arndtstraße - Arnstädter Hohle crossing, if you don't know it you will surely walk past it... it has been at this location since 2014

    Crossroads at the INSA house

    Origin:

    This cross of the risen Christ, the victor over death, stood in the cemetery of Altdobeln (Niederlausitz). which had to give way to opencast brown coal mining in 1979.

    Artist:

    The Lord Carver of Cottbus wood sculptor Felix Hertelt (1897-1972)

    Blessing:

    The Cross of the Resurrected One was placed at this location on the 11th time in 2014 by Auxiliary Bishop Dr. Reinhard Hauke blessed.

    Most people have no idea what God could make of them if they would just make themselves available to Him.

    The cross comes from the Altdöbeln cemetery, which had to give way to opencast lignite mining in Lower Lusatia in 1979. It is almost inconspicuous by the wayside in a concrete enclosure with bars. It's a pity that it's so hidden and probably hardly noticed.
