Volyně - Conciliation Cross 0215

Information

Visited:8. 5. 2020

History:According to legend, this cross is named the Swedish Cross and a Swedish officer is said to be buried here. What is certain, however, is that this peace cross was created by an artist unknown to me and because of a crime unknown to me sometime around 1500 and is made of sandstone. The last time this peace cross was recorded was in the first half of the 19th century and it was subsequently lost. It was probably uprooted after the removal of the German population. Eventually it was rediscovered in 1976 and the cross was erected in its present location. The conciliatory cross is 89 cm high, 49 cm wide and 28 cm thick.
