Despite the prolonged frosty weather, the ice layer was still quite thin today...feet off the lake

Beautiful monument on basalt… a great view in fine weather including.

Especially at this time... nice to see

The good monastery beer and the huge knuckle of pork reward all the effort.

Monument from another time. But it is impressively done, today it encourages climbing.

The memorial was erected on a volcanic chimney, which was formerly called Lerchen Hügel, later called "Loessl Steine". Carl Oskar Ursinus had designated this place for an annual commemoration, since Eugen von Loessl had started his last flight from here on August 9, 1920 during the first Rhön competition. On August 14, 1921, Wilhelm Leusch, the second person to die in gliding, also died at this point due to a surface failure due to a faulty design of his glider.

“Each of these crosses can tell its own story and what prompted people to erect “their” cross at this point. (...) These wayside crosses were erected as visible signs and attract the attention 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 has overcome death (...). The cross is part of our life as it was in the life of Jesus. So I wish that many people … visit the crosses, whether as places of stillness and breathing space before God, whether as places for community gatherings, prayer and praise to God.” (Text source: Dean Rainald M. Ollig in: "Crossroads... small sacred monuments as a sign of popular piety")

Nice path through the red moor. You can see the Heidelstein very nicely from the observation tower at the end
