A very pleasant rest area at the Holzhausen/Pfändhausen/Hambach intersection, featuring a cross-bearer. A cross-bearer (also known as a cross-carrying figure or cross-slinger; colloquially called a cross-beater or cross-sleeper[1]) is a depiction of Christ carrying the cross as a freestanding figure. This distinctive form of wayside shrine, which emerged in the 17th century, is particularly widespread in Franconia and is a prominent feature of the landscape, especially in the Catholic dioceses of Bamberg and Würzburg.
