    “Each of these crosses can tell its own story and what motivated people to erect“ their ”cross at this point. (...) These crossroads were erected as visible signs and attract the eyes of many people. The cross is a symbol of life. It stands as a sign of our Christian hope and wants to direct our gaze to Jesus Christ, who overcame death (...). The cross is part of our life, just as it was part of the life of Jesus. So I hope that many people ... visit the crossroads, whether as places of silence and breathing before God, whether as places of congregation meeting, prayer and praise of God. "
    (Text source: Dean Rainald M. Ollig
    in: “Crossroads. Small sacred monuments as a sign of popular piety ")

      5 remaining from once 7 stone crosses. The crosses are from the Middle Ages. The different treatment and the partially different marks on the crosses are puzzles. There are different theories that go from a peasant cemetery to go on the gallows mountain goats dead.

        So many stone crosses which remind of a bygone time. A bank invites you to linger. 😊
