Best Hikes to Feuersteinkreuz (Quartz Cross Memorial)

Tips

  • The flint cross is reminiscent of a rider who fell from his horse here and had a fatal accident. The cross was made between 1900 and 1920.
    Nowadays you have a great view of the Weilerer Bachtal all the way to the Rhine. The village of Kestert is on the other side of the Rhine.

  • Flint cross

    This quartz stone cross was integrated into the quarry stone wall between 1900 and 1920. The occasion was an accident in which a rider who was on the way to the mill fell from his horse at this point and had a fatal accident. Today there is a unique view of the deeply cut Weilerer Bachtal up to the Rhine and the small town of Kestert on the right bank of the Rhine. Source: Text information board
