Impressive obelisk at the highest point of the Kreuzberg (456 m), probably erected in 1638 as a plague column in memory of the great plague epidemics of 1626 and 1634. On the north side there is a sandstone relief with a motif of the escape from Egypt. A few meters north of it begins a steep trail descent that can also be conquered uphill.
