At the Croce del Francese, located on the Val Galmarara road, it marks the crossroads which on the right, for those going up towards the Galmarara crossroads, also leads uphill towards the Moschaigh cemeteries and Monte Interrupted.

Here, the biker encounters this small sacred monument in the form of a wayside cross entitled "Croce del Francese." Pope John Paul II, during the Stations of the Cross contemplation for the Jubilee Year 2000 in the Colosseum in Rome, expressed the following thoughts, which may also be of interest to passersby at this point: "Was it not necessary for the Messiah to suffer these things and enter into his glory?" (Luke 24:26). At the end of the traditional Stations of the Cross at the Colosseum, we ask ourselves the same question. (...) Dear sisters and brothers! The people of today need an encounter with the crucified and risen Jesus! Who, if not the divinely condemned One, can fully understand the suffering of the one who is unjustly condemned? Who, if not the mocked and humiliated King, can answer the expectations of the many men and women who are without hope and degraded? Who, if not the crucified Son of God, can understand the pain and abandonment of the many people who despair of life because they have no future ahead of them? (Pope John Paul II)

Nice suggestive place, to be integrated in one of the many tours that can be done in the area.
