Baroque wayside shrine from 1707, donated by the married couple Jörig (Georg) and Anna Agata Greutlich. The wayside shrine, decorated with a miller's coat of arms above the round column, features an angel's head with lateral volutes on the capital, above which is the "Holy Family" crowned by the "Most Holy Trinity." The reverse depicts St. George the Dragon Slayer and an inscription revealing the names of the donors and the reason for its erection: "In the year 1707, the honorable Jörig Greutlich and Anna Agata, his honorable wife, had this image erected in honor of Jesus, Mary, and Joseph and the Most Holy Trinity."
