This cross is located at a crossroads, and takes its name from the nearby farmhouse. Legend has it that during the Carlist wars three men were shot here. In his memory a cross was placed on a cairn of stones. From that moment on, all the walkers who passed through the place add a stone to the pile, after making the sign of the cross and saying an Our Father. Tradition says that doing this brings luck to the walker on his way.
