History:This propitiatory cross was created for me unknown when, by whom and where. According to one source, the local peace crosses were moved to their present location from the local area. However, if this was the case, they must have been moved in the late 19th century, as Wilhelm mentions all the crosses at this location in 1903. According to legend, these are Swedish crosses, and another legend states that victims of the wars of the 13th and 15th centuries were buried here. The last legend states that Austrian and Prussian soldiers clashed on this place on 20 April 1758 and their mass graves are here. Whatever the truth, this cross is already incommensurate due to the ravages of time. This does not detract from its beauty, however, and the beautifully distinct sword relief is still there. The reconciliation cross is 54 cm high, 44 cm wide and 13 cm thick.

Impressions:A beautiful conciliatory cross, which I wonder what its real history is.
