The corridor cross shows Christ on the cross at the top and the Madonna at the bottom. The cross used to stand above the Lourdes Grotto, but was moved here by the Kolping family in the course of the restoration in 2005.

The cast-iron Christ and the Madonna were restored by Walter Tippmann. The restoration of this corridor cross, which once stood above the grotto and was given this new place by the Kolping Family a few years ago, is a small contribution to the anniversary celebration "100 years Lourdesgrotte" which was reorganized here in May 2005.
