On the Lärchenbergweg, the cross suddenly appears, almost inconspicuously. The large wooden cross was erected in 1932 by the then mountain club. In 1999 and 2013 the cross had to be renewed. The last consecration took place after the renewal in 2013. Originally, the cross was free-standing and a beautiful view of the parish church of the Assumption of the Virgin Mary was possible. Unfortunately, the aisle is a bit overgrown today.

Simple cross that should make us think.

In front of this "Cross of Peace," I would like to offer the viewer, as a small inspiration, the very first words that the newly elected Pope Leo XIV addressed to the faithful from the balcony of St. Peter's Basilica—even before he bestowed the traditional blessing "urbi et orbi" (to the city and the world): "Peace be with you all! Dear brothers and sisters, this is the first greeting of the Risen Christ, the Good Shepherd... I too desire that this greeting of peace enter your hearts, reach your families, all people, wherever they are, all nations, the whole earth. Peace be with you! This is the peace of the Risen Christ, an unarmed and disarming peace, humble and persevering. It comes from God, the God who loves us all unconditionally."
