    With an interesting inscription. It's probably not visible in the photo... you'll have to go there to read it ;-)

      The roadside cross on Przyczółkowa Street is one of many historical religious and cultural symbols of Wilanów. It stands on the former route from Warsaw to Powsin, where in the 19th century the road from Czerniaków to Powsinek ran.

      The stone cross was set in 1848 on a pedestal made of stones. Its tapering and profiled shaft is decorated with the inscription: "Glory to God / in the Cross / He who bore – / You bear it." The upper part of the cross is distinguished by its decorative finish, with a carved crucifix, INRI plaque and stylized stone volutes. This is one of many Wilanów crosses and chapels that testify to the history of this area, reminding us of the old roads, village boundaries and beliefs of the inhabitants.

        Crosses were erected to commemorate an important event or to confirm one's religious commitment. They were built in gratitude for saving a life or receiving grace. They were also boundary markers that marked the end and beginning of a village or as road signs. Karawaks protected against epidemics. In Poland, there is also a custom of erecting crosses by the roads to commemorate tragic deaths in road accidents. Crosses are made of various materials. An example are crosses with Christ cut out of sheet metal. They were mainly created in the period from the second half of the 19th to the mid-20th century.
