    Hiking

    According to the inscription on the base, the cross at Windbergshof on the path between Kempen and St. Tönis was set by Engelbert Loosen at Hoterhof in 1857 and renewed in 1946 by Michael Hansen at Loosenhof. As you can see, the farm changed its name several times. The piece of land is called "An Haushof".
    On the back is the inscription O CRUX AVE SPES UNICA (Hail, O Cross, our only hope).

    Impulse pilgrimage route Kempen-Tönisvorst:
    My friend, where are you going?
    Don't forget that I am your companion
    I'm always there for you in love
    so stop there, be there and greet me.
