    Hiking

    The cross stone, with its mysterious hole, lies approximately 25 meters from the "Spinnera" sign attached to a tree in a forest area cleared due to bark beetle infestation. It is to be hoped that this relic of the past will be preserved and not destroyed by regrowth. (As of October 2025)

    On the front of the cross stone is a Latin cross with a ploughshare. This tool was once used to clean ploughshares. According to legend, a woman was murdered with such a ploughshare on her way to the Altendorf 'Rockenstube' (rocking room).
