The intersection bears the field name Jungfernkreuz. There is a saga about this. She reports that a knight murdered a girl at this point and has since been called the Virgin Cross.

Rudendorf Weather Stone

Highlight • Monument

Wrong! No Lußberger Wetterstein! That is the Rudendorfer Wetterstein, it was built voluntarily by the Haßbergverein Rudendorf and installed with the support of the Haßberge Nature Park!
