There is a medieval atonement cross here. At that time it was common to negotiate atonement agreements. As part of the compensation, the erection of a stone cross was usually agreed. The background was mostly murder or manslaughter. These crosses can be found on the side of the road or at crossroads.

In order to preserve this old, small, sacred monument for the centuries to come, the expert hands of a restorer would be needed. The past times have already left clear traces: in particular, the missing half of the crossbeam should be replaced so that the original shape of a cross is restored.
