This quartz stone cross was integrated into the quarry stone wall between 1900 and 1920. The occasion was an accident in which a rider who was on the way to the mill fell from his horse at this point and had a fatal accident. Today there is a unique view of the deeply cut Weilerer Bachtal up to the Rhine and the small town of Kestert on the right bank of the Rhine. Source: Text information board
