非常に険しい斜面の下に整備されたいくつかの洞窟

The small sacred monument that the biker encounters here is designed somewhat differently than many other wayside crosses. The most common material is wood or stone, but here, metal has been used. The longitudinal beam is unusually long, so that it rises above the fields, visible from afar. The two ends of the crossbeam and the upper end of the longitudinal beam are adorned with an additional decorative element. But regardless of material and design, all crosses have one thing in common: For the faithful observer, they are a sign of the death of Jesus Christ, but at the same time, they always point beyond that to the resurrection.

This memorial cross made of light wood—dedicated to the memory of a deceased monk—is one of many that bikers encounter repeatedly along the way. They are all symbols of remembrance of the crucifixion, but also of the resurrection of Jesus Christ. + "With us on earth, His memory exists, but in the kingdom of heaven is His presence: This presence is the joy of those who have already attained salvation. The memory is our consolation, as we are still wanderers, journeying toward our fatherland." (Bernard of Clairvaux) Some passersby have placed stones at the foot of the small sacred monument.
