On the "Kohlenstraße" above Spessart, hikers/walkers come across a memorial cross from ancient times: According to the still clearly legible inscription, it was erected in 1776 and is obviously well "kept in good condition". At the intersection of the longitudinal and transverse beams of the cross is the heart of Jesus and the three nails of the crucifixion.
