View of Milz, from where you can reach Irmelshausen via the former border region. The town itself, with its numerous half-timbered houses, is also worth seeing.

The view of the castle is excellent here, the bike path is well-developed, and the scenery is simply wonderful. A fun section.

In the strictest sense of the word definition, a distinction must be made between "commemorative crosses" and "atonement crosses." The latter were to be erected by the perpetrators as part of their atonement (penance) for their crime. In some regions, the term "murder memorial cross" is occasionally encountered. Memorial crosses, on the other hand, were usually erected by people (often family members, possibly friends or neighbors) close to the deceased (not just for victims of crime).
