A little information about the cross erected in 1940 and then renewed in 1946, 1968, 1992 and 2017: The cross (3.30 x 2.00 m) was erected as a sign of resistance against the Nazi ban on church youth organizations as a simple cross on this then hidden place. After the war it was renewed and later received the inscription "Jesus Christ our hope". In the Weseler Bergsteigerlied it says in the refrain: "Yes, yes, at the Vogelsnack the world is still rack there is nature still really pure" Just a personal assumption about the name finding through observation on site: Large flocks of wild birds stay at the foot of the rock - even in winter - and find shelter in the rugged rock, the towering deciduous trees and the lush undergrowth. When I visited down there, there was a loud jumble of chirping.
