    Age: early 17th century.
    Description: 210cm high / sandstone. Small stocky torture, high-rectangular base (70x35x32cm), three sides diamond-coated in the cartridge field, back smooth. Pillar (80cm) below with neck. Traffic light (40x35x38cm): four empty picture niche with segmental arch, cruciform saddle roof, partly cut off.
    Note: The torture is next to an old shooting range. Originally, a small oak crucifix crowned the torture and was marked with the inscription "A.H. 1919". Later it was replaced by a Latin cross made of iron. That too has been lost in the meantime. The term "red torture" could have been an indication of the original color of the torture. The lime colors, however, are completely washed out.
