    The cross tells an interesting story, that of Alfred Rötzler. After his successful escape from captivity, he vowed gratitude to build a chapel in his home town of Unteraching. The community refused to allow him to do so, but instead this cross was installed in 1960. He died in 1963. His daughter, who lives nearby, watches over the cross, which was renovated in 2015.

    This way cross commemorates Alfred Rötzler's escape from British captivity from Albania. Out of gratitude, he built this cross together with friends.

    Beautiful wooden cross, reminiscent of the flight of Alfred Rötzer from British prisoner of war in Albania to Unterhaching.
