The Irish-born writer and literary scholar Clive Staples Lewis (1898–1963), author of the fantasy series „The Chronicles of Narnia“ (awarded the Carnegie Medal for Children's Books for the last volume in 1956), found his way to Christianity only after a phase of atheism and materialism. In front of this small, sacred monument here, in the form of a wayside cross/field cross, I quote an important sentence by C. S. Lewis, which he noted down during the time of his turning to Jesus Christ as the savior and redeemer (1931): + “Now the story of Christ is simply a true myth: a myth of the same sort as all others, but with the tremendous difference that it really happened.”
