This stone cross rising from the brick base may appear intact at a first glance, but it's worth a second closer look: the cross apparently once had a body, which has since been removed. Where the longitudinal and transverse beams meet, the outlines of the corpus that was formerly attached can still be seen in the stone. Also clearly visible are the holes that marked the nails on the outstretched arms and feet, with which the figure of Christ crucified had been fixed to the stone.
