Hiking

The Hahnenböhler Cross in the district of the small Palatinate town of Deidesheim is an iron double cross that is classified as a cultural monument. It is a weather cross, which used to be set up on paths towards the village or in exposed places to keep harm out of villages and fields. According to an article in the Dürkheimer Anzeiger of April 6, 1886, the cross had been erected a few days earlier in place of a wooden predecessor from 1803. The Spindler family from Forst had both the predecessor cross and the successor cross erected.
