“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 looks 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 ")

From the cross you have a great view over the Ruwertal and Waldrach

Great view over the Ruwertal and Waldrach

Hard to see but to guess. Long ago it was probably a place of retreat for the local people when danger was imminent. Relatively easy to defend to the front with steep terrain to the sides. Possibly attached with palisades. But it was all a long time ago.

You have to think about what it should have looked like there in the past 🙄

Nice view over the Ruwertal and Waldrach.
