    Two stone crosses at the NW exit of the town on the road to Dürrenhembach (Mfr.) approx. 10m on the left in a meadow. (Schmeissner 1977)

    Say: 1.
    A farmer is said to have been killed by a shepherd here. (spitter)


    2.
    At this point a farmer and a shepherd killed each other. (Two stone crosses for both!
    This folk legend also wants to know that a staff was once visible on the other cross as a symbol of the shepherd's crook). (Schmeissner 1977)

      The cross stands at the entrance to Oberheimbach.

        Nice rest area next to the cross.
