The Way of the Cross was erected in 1987 on the occasion of Pope John Paul II's visit, who among other things visited the Prosper-Haniel mine and gave a speech in the Schalke Arena.

The place of this cross, as well as the higher place on the stockpile, are impressive and cultural souvenirs of the Pope's visit and the roots of the Ruhr area.
