The Iron Cross in Paasdorf is a true gem and an important part of our cultural landscape. It was erected by the metalworking and blacksmithing students of the Mistelbach Trade School under the direction of Gerhard Rötzer. At approximately 3 meters high, it catches the eye even from afar and is made of welded iron parts that are part of the "reuse" process. You can even still see where the parts were previously used – that makes it very special. The cross stands at a point where you have a magnificent view over the village of Paasdorf. It not only symbolizes the deep-rooted religiosity of our region, but also combines tradition with modernity. The design demonstrates that we live in the here and now without forgetting our roots. It is a place of reflection and tranquility, ideal for anyone passing by the cycle path and wanting to take a short break. Here you can sit down, enjoy the view, and get some fresh air. The Iron Cross is thus not only a work of art, but also an inviting place to experience the beauty of Paasdorf and its surroundings. A little rest and reflection – that's a great thing to do here.

A special architectural feature is the 12-sided pyramidal roof. In the tower hangs a bell weighing approximately 35 kg, cast at the Grassmayr bell foundry in Innsbruck and bearing an image of St. Francis.

The chapel is named after Saint Francis of Assisi, the patron saint of animals, nature, and the environment – fittingly for its location in the nature park. The chapel is located directly on the Weinviertel Way of St. James and serves as a spiritual place of tranquility for pilgrims, hikers, and nature lovers. Today, the chapel is a popular tourist destination and hosts events such as the annual animal blessing ceremony around World Animal Day.

The chapel was planned and built by the Buschberg local group of the Lower Austrian Mountain and Nature Watch, together with numerous volunteers. The groundbreaking ceremony took place in February 2022, and it was officially inaugurated in the summer of the same year.

The St. Francis of Assisi Chapel on the Buschberg in the Weinviertel region of Lower Austria was built in 2022. It is located in the Leiser Berge Nature Park near the radar station on the Buschberg, which, at 491 m, is the highest elevation in the region.
